My favourite thing about these fucking shitheaps is the anisotropy of the different panels. A massive giveaway that the build quality and attention is fucking garbage.

See how the reflections on the doors travel in different directions - essentially, thats anisotropy. Brushed metal (in this case) has a direction in which it has been treated, so the reflections and light travel along that surface direction. Mismatch those and it sticks out a mile. It’s one of the first things you sort on this type of fabrication - even DeLorean had it covered in the 80’s. Paint jobs are all done in one direction to prevent this effect from appearing.

How anyone can say anything positive about this is beyond me.

I was wondering what that was about. Thanks for teaching me a new thing today!

Yes, It took me some time to notice why it looks like straight from scrapyard, but this is it
