Was there a large discrepancy in price with cars back then? It doesn't seem like there was enough difference between cars back in the day. The only thing I can think of is that the assembly line made them more affordable.
Not knowing much about it, I would guess that car culture has a lot to do with how the prices got set and how brands got elevated. It would have to develop over time
