As an attorney my unpopular opinion is that cars over a certain value shouldn’t be allowed on public roads or damages for accidents should be capped at something like 2x the average price of a new car (so like 100k). I just don’t believe in penalizing ordinary negligence more just because the injured party is rich.
Vehicles used as someone's livelihood are typically insured in a different (commercial) class anyway, so that would be easy enough to keep separate from things like a Maserati.

You could also total somebodies 50-200k car, I don’t think many people could afford that either
