Can't wait for paints to start bio-degrading in about 10-20 years.
Much like MB's bio-degradable wiring harnesses from the 90s.

So if you think your paint looks like shit, then you are correct?

why paint it at all, just let it rust. Nice and sustainable. By end of lease the car returned itself back to earth.

No one asked you to comment on their design language, so, were even.

You should read the article. The paint is 100% chemically identical. The petroleum-based precursors are just sourced from biomass instead of fresh crude oil.

"Is that bird poop on your car?"
"No, no, that's stock " (yes, this is obviously in jest in case someone feels inclined to tell me how inaccurate I am)
