Out came the iPhone and a couple of shots to start your Monday off on the right foot.
The entire car looks like this but the low morning sun makes the side much more noticeable.

Enjoy!!
Ahhh - it burns! xD When I see cars like that I'm always tempted to leave my card under the wiper...but somehow I always run out of business cards by the time I do see one sitting around xD Oh the irony... Thanks for sharing!

Re: Swirl Option
I saw something similar this weekend, was in the parking lot and some black, 4-door passenger car had so many swirls it looked like someone washed it with an SOS pad or a handful of gravel.
Cars like these are good for picture to show others what swirls look like but in most cases it would be pointless to work on one or even talk to the owner about how to undo the damage because they don't care. That's why the paint is in the condition it is ing...
There are exceptions, like person buys a used car that's swirled out and wants to fix it up...

Maybe it's a fashion statement? Bird poop is so dated.

Re: Swirl Option
I've never really approached someone about their car but lately, I've been "Sizing" a vehicle to see how I would tackle a project like yours.
I think what you proposed is a good idea. I know as Mike pointed out the some may just not care but I wonder how many would care if they knew that their car could give off a great reflection.

Re: Swirl Option
Like was said, the car owner may not know. This owner may thing it looks good that "buffing" mark, shows a shining finish. But I bet he also puts catsup on his steak.

Re: Swirl Option
Knowing BMW, that option is part of their new Performance Package 3, which includes rock chips in the front bumper and buffer holograms to make it look like the owner is too busy racing to care about such frivolous things like "perfect paint". It also costs $7500 and you need to buy the 26" wheels with the hyper extreme performance spring tires that are not suitable for winter, summer, or fall.
