The only time I have ever seen them was when I live in California over 20 years ago. I havent seen one on the road ever since (Delaware/Phili area)

Huh, then they are way more common in Europe. I even see them pretty much monthly in snowy Oslo, Norway during winter. Head to Italy and you see several each hour. Head to Monaco and you see one every street corner lol

Philadelphia isn't a rich city and Delaware is tiny.

The US is also huge. Most people with these that are actually driving them anywhere but to car shows are pretty much only going to be in places where flashy things are common. LA, Vegas, Miami, San Francisco, etc. I've seen plenty in those cities, but I don't think I've seen anything above a Porsche anywhere else. Except for the one Ferrari I saw parked at a Holiday Inn in Oklahoma City, which was from Florida... which is further away than Norway is long.

Edit: I get it. I didn't cover every major city in the US where they are common or where people have seen a nice car once. I have seen more expensive ($250k+) cars in Santa Fe than anywhere else I've had an extended stay. I obviously didn't cover everywhere. Holy crap.

Then the people down here commenting with "bro there is a green one in Philadelphia" just proves my point.

There are a ton of super cars in Orlando. I think any city with a population of over a million in a large populated state is going to have a lot of super cars.
