I feel the same way about cars as I do guitars. Guitars are meant to be played. Cars are meant to be driven. Cosmetics are cosmetics. It's unrealistic to try to keep things absolutely perfect. This is one of the major reasons why I prefer to buy everything used. Generally, they already have some imperfections/chips/scratches, so fuck it! Why worry about it? You can still take care of your things, but there's no reason to be anal retentive about it. I understand people who buy new are worried about resale value, and that makes sense, I guess, but if you're always worrying/getting stressed out about imperfections, you will never be able to fully enjoy the car.
