yea, that question kind of implies that you somehow didn't work for what you have. I feel like no matter what you would actually say, they would just hear 'i had a trust fund from my grandparents' or something along those lines. one of the guys on another forum i frequent (for a local car club) has some amazing cars, i think 10 or so, including a GTR (heavily modified with) and a Gallardo Superleggera. In his profile, under biography he has written: "Worked 22 hours/day for 12 years, now I am cruising through life at warp speeds enjoying my cars!" I think thats really cool, but i think when most people see someone driving around with a really high end car they think, 'oh that must have been given to them in one way or another. makes them feel better about themselves.

I don't know what you're getting all bent out of shape about. The guy obviously misunderstood what you meant and reacted negatively. It happens.

If you don't want something like that to happen in the future, then just say something that's more universally understood, such as "Nice car, man!"
