something that concerns me about the paint is look on the insides of the panels, under the car, inside the fenders/door area even in the engine bay and u will see they dont really bother painting these areas at all its all just what looks like overspray and mist....... these newer cars r gonna rust easily and will be peices of **** in only a couple years up north where all the snow and salt is..... They are gonna fall apart.....my fg2 is a my first new car and first car newer than an 89 and i dunno if i would buy another brand new car with the way things are going. Id say my money would be better spent restoring an older car and building a motor as opposed to spending $20k or more on something new with such poor quality.... I dont think its just a honda problem i think its just the new industry standards and its going to bite the makers in the ass hopefully........Write all the letters u want complain all u want but they already got ur money and feel they no longer owe u a thing.... so i urge ppl to show ur concerns and outrage buy speaking the corporate language and be heard through ur money..... make them step their **** up......
