I don't think the paint is any worse than what you see on all other cars these days. It is applied nicely without excessive orange peel. It chips, but so does everything else that is low VOC.

I am also wondering about the glass issues. I have been hit by crap that should have took the windshield out and not suffered even a chip so far. Glass is also a safety device and must meet some pretty stringent government requirements.
Quent headed off my usual paint VOC lecture but ya anybody that buys these that hasn't bought a new car in the last two years may very well be put of by the paint and that will just get worse the more "upscale" they try to sell them at.
