I know in the past, mobsters were always dressed to the nines. What are guys wearing, driving, drinking, smoking etc. Basically if you were a modern day wise guy, what would you be wearing, driving, drinking etc. What is hip for these guys? Thanks guys.

I think after the Dapper Don, most mobsters made it a point to not dress very well. A lot of guys getting arrested in jeans and t-shirts. I think Cadillacs are still popular with mobsters. It seems to be most often mentioned whenever a newspaper mentions a mobster's car.
