It's mostly that exchange students are required to have 3x their tuition sitting in a bank account. If your tuition is $50k a year, it's paid for and you have $150k sitting in a bank account, you can probably convince your parents that you need a car (on a campus that has more convenient metro options than NYC), even though parking is ridiculously expensive in order to discourage you from driving a car.
I remember when I was in school, there was a Japanese girl with a santorini blue e46 M3. It was sweet, but ridiculous. When you have money though, sometimes you just can't be bothered to be smart with it.
