But, the car does look somewhat bent going right to left as we look at it. I feel like I'm just pointing out obvious stuff, so I'll just stop.

Wasn't there damage like this on one of the Ferarris from TGS?
Still though, this is interesting. I'm not sure if it's the angle of the camera, but the car looks very bent out of shape.

I saw it posted in the new and info thread, where it should have stayed because I see no damage.

Yes, welcome to TGS 2O09 LOL.
We've seen damage on the 458 and SLS AMG.

reflection...

Well lets be clear... to the best of my understanding there are two types of damage. One for race models (featuring doors and bumpers that can break off) and another type of damage for production cars (paint scratches and possibly a dent here or there)

I don't see anything.Can anyone point it out because I have no idea what he's talking about.

ok....
So then explain exactly how the reflections on the hood, windshield, roof, sides etc...all look different...
Yet every section there on the bumber looks EXACTLY the same regardless of the angle or intensity of the light that it hitting it?
Or explain the random stripes of "reflection" on the left (the left two blue arrows) that are contained within an entire section of the bumper that is otherwise in a shadow??
Or how there is no change in the reflection of the light from the crease in the bumper that runs from the bottom left corner of the left headlight when certainly the light hitting surfaces at different angles would cause a different reflection? Or the random splotches of paint down in the bottom left corner of the bumper. I've never seen a reflection like that...

That is definitely, and clearly a reflection of what ever is off to car right.
If it was not, it wouldn't be so uniform, and there would be more scratches and missing paint, and would definitely be visible.
Otherwise, they is not the final build anyway, soooooo it's entirely irrelevant.

but its clearly NOT uniform in anyway lol...look at all the randomness that the blue arrows point to...they are surrounded by shaded areas...certainly there would be SOME reaction to the light in the surrounding areas??..
notice the lines on the hood. Each representing a change in the shape of the hood. Notice how that also changes how the light reacts to the metal/paint, because it is hitting at a different angle...
Yet in the large grey section of the bumper there is a crease that runs from the headlight to the bottom of the bumper yet there is ZERO change in the "reflection" and what is causing the random splotches of red in the bottom left corner of that section??

ok then...if it is a "reflection"
then explain...
how can the reflection remain ENTIRELY unchanged as the car moves down the track while all other reflections change dynamically as the car moves and the light hits it at different angles??
Funny how that part of the "reflection" mysteriously remains the same shade of matte primer grey eh??

Go to :21 seconds of the video you took this from. The entire roof of the car is the same color as the highlighted spot you are pointing out. It is nothing more then a reflection.

then explain to me how the car can travel the entire straight, and enter a turn, passing through a bunch of different shadows, and be shown from multiple different angles, with light hitting the car in all different directions, while every inch of the car constantly has its reflections changing dynamically, yet that exact specific section of the car stays an identical shade of grey without even the slightest hint of gloss reflection?
there are simply two explanations....
1. It is damage in the form of paint actually coming off the car...
2. Polyphony digital has released a playable demo of a game containing a car model that has an entire chuck of texture missing from it...
which is it?
I'm really looking forward to hearing how you can explain how such an irregularly shaped piece of the front bumper painted with a glossy red paint that includes multiple angles and creases could maintain the exact matte colored reflection from so many different angles, in so many different positions on the track...

If you go from 0:17 - 0:19 u will see that that part of front bumper goes from blackish to gray. It's just a reflection, combined with camera recording.
There is no damage in CES show, it's been reported before.

1. show me a picture of it changing and acting like a reflection...I see no change in the color of that section of the bumper other than it passing through shadows and becoming slightly darker, but CERTAINLY not acting like a reflection would.
2. Where are the reports of no damage?
again, if this is the case. I ask for a simple explanation as to how this section of the car shows no reaction to light in any of the shots i have shown?
