Re: orange peel
And I thought I was the only one!!! Three days after I took delivery on my black TT, I noticed a band of ornage peel that runs across the roof, left to right, about midway back. It is VERY hard to see except in certain reflected light (took me three days of gazing at the car before Inoticed it), but it's definitely there. The dealer was as surprised and dismayed as I was to discover this. They will take it to Sears Imports, who they tell me has the finest paint facility in the state, to have the top panel repainted. It should be pretty straightforward, as there are no blend areas to deal with, just a four-sided panel. They've guaranteed my complete satisfaction, and even offered to bring a loaner to me and to shuttle my car back and forth for me so I'm not inconvenienced in any way. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Carousel is totally bent on satisfying their customers. I'll let you know how it turns out. <p>Love the car!<p>Bob Fogt

No orange peel - smooth as a baby's behind
Absolutely none on my Silver TT. Very impressed with the smoothness of the finish; seems to chip easy though, may be that the water based paints are not as flexible to stones, or it just may be that there are a lot of stones kicking up?
