WTF. I was a kid out looking at cars with my dad. He was looking at Lincolns, saw one he otherwise liked, and noticed that the gap between the driver’s door and the back seat door was wider at the top than the bottom. The salesman tried to have the shop adjust the door so that it was aligned, but then it was misaligned in other ways (like the edge of the driver’s window was higher than the back seat’s window). He never looked at another Lincoln, ever. Choice quote: “I’d never be able to look at it without seeing that skewy door and it’d make me mad every time.”
Fit and finish are absolutely things that non-geeks care tremendously about.
