Not sure what kind of car you are talking about, but it does not cost me
$15-$30/day. Mine is about $2.00 per day, which includes purchase price,
insurance and maintenance. But your point is still valid.

Ego - It's mine
My schedule
My space
Security
Point to point travel where the bus doesn't go

You pay dearly to own a car and do it yourself($15 to $30 per day).
People that buy corporate arcraft do the same. They are just on a
different level than the rest of us. If you were a citizen of a third
world country living in a shack, that fat cat that drives by in a Jeep
looks to him like the guy in a corporate aircraft looks to you and me.
I't just a matter of prospective.
I'm in the business of putting people in private jet aircraft and it's
not about hauling a bunch of people either. The average load factor
for all Gulfstream GV/G-550's is 3.5 even though most have 12 to 14
pax seats. This aircraft has a range of 6,700nm and the average stage
length is 1.6 hours.
