quote: If you are looking for a fast car that you can mod the hell out of, so be it, get the car, mod it, don't worry about a warranty. If you are looking for a good car for your kid, a car that you won't mod and plan to keep, YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN! I think I'm gonna go up to the dealership and call everyone out on the sales floor. They won't cover a paint defect because basically it's too expensive, that's kind of the feeling I got from the dealership's service manager. ONLY BUY A CAR FROM MITSUBISHI IF YOU ARE GOING TO RACE IT! They void warranties, don't cover defects, and generally are not standing behind their products. I love my car, don't get me wrong, but to be treated like this is insane.

If they do paint your car make them paint the whole quarter panel, the roof rail, and down the A-pillar in the front. Then make them wet sand and buff the door jams. Do not let them just paint the quarter panel and burn in on the C-pillar. Which is what they will probably want to do.

This way there is no "blend line" in the c- pillar. All the areas that have been painted will end where there is a panel gap. And hopeful any differences in paint texture will not be as pronounced.
