As for me I have posted in this thread before but as I drive my car more and more the only thing that sticks with me is the DAMN TORQUE DIP. I want it gone so badly.
Regardless though, I love my car more each time I get in and drive it.
Toyota owns Lexus, so they probably use the same painting process. But I've been hearing that because of standard regulations they are having to use a different type of paint with less chemicals on vehicles. The paint is very cheap, just like everything else that is being made in todays world.
