I haven't paid any attention to any of the new releases that aren't copies of actual competition cars. How are the finishes listed on the other releases? Generally a race car doesn't have a show quality paint job because it won't last. I would think the polished look has been done to add realism as opposed to "pimp my ride". It could also be a cost cutting measure. Plastics are after all a petroleum derivitive.
