Ah yes pic number 2 highlights the factory orangepeel on the black wonderfully. I love how it seems they painted the hood and top with such wonderful precision and the rest is tropicana...

No....no cops.


What IS going on with the orangepeel paint there???? I was dreading someone would notice that...even though it gives the pic a neato Rembrandt touch. The doors do have a crazy texture in them.....There's a bit in the hood but none I can see on the trunk. Is there a way to clean that up??? does it just have to settle???? From what I was told, the car is just a few months off the line....does paint settle? Zaino gives it a glossy sheen, but if you look into it (like a close up photo), the texture is still visible.

That picture is of the rear 1/4 panel...see gas can opening, and partial tire...

anyone else have similar condition??

I said all that above because I have the same black rx8. I have noticed no settling. I have just come to get used to the orangepeel on a 30k car. I am disappointed though.

Maybe it's more a Monet style.....but what can be done....sandpaper? Maybe I can cover it up with some slick graphix of flames. People would say "dude, your car's on fire."
