While the housing market is certainly different today I think building homes aimed at the top 1% - 5% of earners is probably safer than any other target demographic. The top earners are still top earners and pay cash for their homes ;) The Disney allure will always be around I think :P
I dont have any facts to back up my theory and I still think its a horrible investment.

Jumbo loads are hard to come by.
Home sales $1MM+ are very slow
Not as many people as you think are paying cash for homes.
Money if you can get it is still very cheap to borrow
