Default Paint & Rims

So I'm just going to complain a little here. Out of the 3 cars I've had none of them were as easy to f**k up as this one. The littlest hit of the paint and it's scratched or dented. The littlest hit on the rim and it's scratched. I scratched my car today at the car wash because i accidentally brushed the sprayer up against the car, and it made a huge scratch, that is just one of many scratches on the car, and of course my car is black and white scratches stand out like no other. My front driver side rim is scratched, my back driver side rim has 2 scratches. It seems like the littlest things do damage to this car.

Why don't you treat your Scion better? I have had it for over 4 months and there are 0 scratches, 0 dents, and the greatest shine in history.

a lot of companies are having problems w/ paint. I also have a flawless SSM. And of course your going to get a sratch when you "accidentally brushed the sprayer up against the car" that your own fault, what is the paint suppose to do?

I have you beat +1 since I have had it for 4 months and have less than 500 miles on it. I also still have the new car smell in it. Plus I still haven't opened the moonroof or opened any of the compartments besides the cd cover. Booooooya!:D
