interesting question, also how to measure luxury.

according to the munich institute for statistics, in 2013 there were 1990 vehicles registered capable of going faster than 300km/h. this number probably increased since and does not include the cars which are in the city, but are registered somewhere else, as one can spot quite a few arabian or russian registered luxury cars in town. Now munich is popular among the rich and beautiful, but Monte Carlo, Dubai or London it aint.

the Sun did a clever trick: scan instagram for pics and check the geotag. the most supercars were spotted in:
London, Moscow, LA, NY, Dubai. Munich, for example, didnt make top 20 (Stuttgart did, and having worked for Porsche, i know why - every Carrera, Turbo and RS ever made will roll through the roads close to the museum at some point, and the number of petrolhead pilgrims with cameras from all over the world there is staggering). Vancouver is not on the list.
