That matte vinyl wrap looks like garbage. Especially compared to all the promo photos showing he deep wet looking shiny paint finish that we've seen. It would be nice to see it in person but I won't be able to get to Austin until Thursday in time for the COTA PSL holder pit walk. I'm guessing they'll probably have it somewhere a the track for that.

Yeah the wrap looks ~slightly better in person, We had to adjust the lighting after the pictures because they wouldn't let me move the car to somewhere with better lighting. But yes there are some spots like around the headlights that look rushed for sure.

Great sight! Not a fan of the Q50's exterior body styling but can't go wrong with that engine and interior.

You work at an Infiniti dealership?

Yeah the seats were super nice! Plus all the red carbon fiber trim inside looked really good too.
