Another I traded my car for a 5.0

Im sure I'll get a bashing for this post but oh we'll, today I traded my 2SS in for a new 5.0 Mustang, I got $29900 for my Camaro. The reason for this is the crap paint job these car have, every time I wash my car I find more little primer spots on the hood and doors and rear quarters anyways now I don't hav e to worry how my paint will look like a year from now ?

How can you be sure? Ford isn't know for great paint quality either.

To each their own I guess.

Personally, I would rather repaint my entire camaro then give it up for a stang but I just prefer the camaro that much more over the stang.

Again, to each their own, hope you are happier with the Stang.

Meh, paint is something that is going to deteriorate no matter what. I have scratches all up and down my 5.0 where some prick decided to key it for no reason.
