I am going to the "new" car and truck show this weekend at the convention center--can't wait to see the swirls. The cars are all detailied by their respective delaerships.
Many of the cars at the Tokyo Motor Show (including Aston Martins, Lexus, etc,) end up looking like that, too (though that one does look especially bad!). Though they may have been marred before they were put on display, the main reason is that their reps are constantly rubbing the dry paint with cloths (not MF) day after day, especially to remove the finger prints from the thousands of people who are constantly touching them. Sad but true
