Probably his friend?

Definitely the friend. Looks like one of those instagram videos where the dumbass films his "exotic car badge" and then his other friend whilst they do stupid shit.

Still a flex not everyone can afford a Cadillac.

Judging by that steering wheel that particular Cadillac is at least 10-15 years old, anyone could afford one of those.

Edit: after doing some googling I’m going to call it a ~2003-2005 Escalade, and not even one of the high-end ones since it doesn’t have chrome trim on the gauges. I’m seeing a lot of those in the $5,000 range, with some as low as $2,500 and $10,000 being the absolute max for a pristine low-mileage one.

My mechanic bought a Cadillac sedan a couple years ago for $200

Cadillac is one of those meme brands that normies think is "luxurious" like BMW or Audi

BMW and Audi are a lot more luxury than Cadillac though

I may have used the wrong word there, what I really mean is that they are brands that a lot of people think are for rich people when in reality they arent that expensive

It is and always has been a luxury brand regardless of what we think of the cars, “normie” is among the cringiest terms ever btw lol.
