Drive in good health!

I was impressed with how good the black paint looked in those dealership photos. Since the repairs were checked to be very very good, maybe they did a complete painting in original color. If so, that could be a big plus. Having several owners during 8 years, an original black paint would surely show its age.

Amazing! You must know how to take care of a finish.

The clear coat UV protection usually goes from trying to buff out little scratches that are so noticeable with black.

I'm in the boat if your going to drive the car and not use it as a museum piece then who cares if it had an accident as long as its not salvage titled.
