"Impressive." Adrian isn't mocking when he says that, he may not own cars himself but he recognizes the value in collecting expensive and meaningful things.

He isn't expecting Lex's new change of topic, but it's a perfectly welcome one. Far be it for Adrian Veidt to pass up the opportunity to talk up the trappings of his success. "In New York? Well Veidt Enterprises is housed in a much more modern building, to begin with. And a great deal taller. I like to imagine that it's a marriage of old and new -- open spaces, plenty of glass, but it shows off some of my collection of art and artifacts as well. Of course it's also designed to be appealing to the people I deal with every day as well, so I don't think it completely reflects my personal aesthetic."

There's no obvious indication that he's holding anything back, but someone with a good eye for reading people (especially someone who knows how Adrian operates) could probably see the signs that there's more beneath the surface.
