Default new vette (paint)

Not what i call a good paint job. we have a brand new black vette with only 90 miles on it up here at work. it has some of the worst orange peel i have ever seen. maby because of the fiber glass. but still looks like crap i also think the gas door is way to close to the door handle. about 1/2 inch. just kind of disapointed in the car. other then that the car is one hell of a beast.

Wanna see bad, go look at the new Jeep Cherokee in Blue, absolutley awful. I'm not talking a few spots, I mean EVERYWHERE. The absolute worst paint job I've ever seen on a new car to date.

i had a jeep cherokee lorado. for a loaner car a few months ago.the 2005 model. i hated it. made a good trip to the dump.(had some stuff to get rid of ) but it drove like crap. we used to have a rx300 and a navigator. i know they are not in the same class but damn. i thought i was in a kia. it was a base model of the lorado. but not a fan at all. not suprised about the paint
