I guess when you're a celebrity you can make your car as ugly as you want.

That is an aggressively unattractive look for a car.

Who is this "celebrity" and why would I care about his car (since he doesn't).

Yes, I could google him, but... I don't actually care.

I own no garage queens. If it's in my driveway, it's been ridden hard and put away wet. ...and now, with a light crust of Maine road salt.

I agree, it certainly needs to be executed, and put out of its misery

I don't know who he is either. I'm sure it's just vinyl wrap. It's just cringe worthy. Is it supposed to look like wood or rust?

It's rust, which has a certain irony on a car made of plastic and aluminum.

Going for a Mad Max look, I guess?
