Not even drinking would result in such asinine comments. I would guess a mixture of some illegal substances with low IQ.

No wonder you can't get the car you want from your local dealer. They tend to help people they like and tell people like you $50 over. Why? Not because they're "Stealers" but because it takes that much profit to want to deal with someone with such a puss poor attitude!

FYI:
I've seen more heavier defects in the more recent GT3's than ever before. After discussing the matter with peers from other parts of NA who work on a fair clip of GT3's, they shared similar feedback with me.
Some of the stuff I have seen is literally impossible to practically address without a repaint.

How recent were the build dates? There was this post back in July about a service bulletin, recognizing that shipping wrap was being applied before clearcoats were adequately cured. At the time I assumed it meant they were comprehensively fixing these issues. But thinking on it, now I'm not sure how premature wrap affects defects at all.
I'm not necessarily saying folks should turn their cars away when they arrive. Just saying that them being new is not them being perfect. Everyone's own eye for detail can drive their decision to fixing or not fixing any concern areas. Most folks are fine with mostly good but not perfect.

Maybe it’s jusr me, but I honestly don’t care about the wraps and paint protection and super detailing. Don’t get me wrong, I respect the craft and attention to detail; it is amazing. However, I’m simple; as long as I can shift gears, hear that beautiful motor, and everything looks presentable, I’m good. Wear and tear on paint is just part of the ownership experience

I'm interested to see what disaster paint job came from the factory. Pics of said irreparable weakness?
