Traditionally higher end housing is better built, while traditionally economical cars like Corolla and Civic have been among the most long lasting with the lowest maintenance. Luxury cars typically require vastly more maintenance to keep going which is why they depreciate like stones after the warranty period. This is a big part of why I drive a basic car even though I make SWE dollars, I value durability. More luxury cars is probably bad for the common man and for the environment.
