If you’re getting into private jets, you should also know that brands have reputations even there.
Gulfstream is a luxury brand within the private jet world. You can easily get a comparable product from Bombardier or Cessna Textron that performs equivalently, but only pay half as much operating costs as Gulfstream. Like Gucci, you pay a lot of money just for the Gulfstream name.
At the low end of the market, Honda makes a small jet. (This is in the Very Light Jet category which bumps up against the turboprop market).
At the very high end of the market you get into Boeing Business Jets, and the Airbus equivalent. These are converting airliners to your exact interior design specifications. Airliners are like another order of magnitude higher cost to operate.
