• ... that the Canadian artist Tom Forrestall spent six months painting his car? Source: The hook fact has 3 citations in the article, including the exhibition catalogue, which is not online. From the Mercedes-Benz press release: "For the six months while Forrestall meticulously painted the car, the public was invited to watch his progress and in the late summer of 2014, the car was officially unveiled at the dealership." From the caption to image 7 in this photo story: "Forrestall worked on the car for six months."

• New enough, long, enough, neutral, well referenced, with no close paraphrasing from online sources. I love the hook, which is cited and verifiable. QPQ is done. Nice work! 97198 (talk) 07:55, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
