I must be old and out of touch because I don’t find any of those cars attractive.

Same. The oldest car there is maybe five years old. In the old car hobby, we call the owners of those cars "check writers", and ignore them at events.

I don’t know what a GTR or GT3 is and surely can’t say which one that is in the pics.

If I was a single guy without kids, I'd probably drive a Huracan.

Could you drive one and have a simple family car/suv as well for what the Tesla costs?

Reliability on supercars has come a long way.

If by some miracle, drugs & human trafficking ceased to exist in Florida, there would be no car shows.

I could but it would see little use as it's a 2 seater and we are 4.
Most of my driving is with wife and kids in the car. It's the same reason why I sold my Vettes. They were rotting in the garage.
Also, having to support 4 people with my income restricts my budget.
If I was single, my car budget would be like $300k and right now it's $150k
