Like I said its not about what anyone likes about their own rat, patina or what ever, it is how its preceived by eveyone else. If it looks like junk and unkept in a degraded looking condition, most normal people will prejudge it. What you or who ever thinks looks cute, with the junk look, others won't. If patina was the thing all new cars would be sold that way. There is no one high up in the food chain that drives a BMW or ? that is going to be happy when a rusty pile parks next to them in a store parking lot. Matter of fact, if that BMW had a dent months before you parked next to them, they will likely have the police waiting when you come out of the store to climb into your patina rig. See what I'm saying. It kinda brings the wrong kind of attention in places, including home unless you live on acreage and have no neighbors.
