I wish you guys would do a poll for paint chips as related to color of paint. I think I've seen many more complaints from people with Yellow camaros in their sigs.

My rally yellow is doing decent, but still more chips than I'd like it to have for ~8300 miles.

got plenty of chips in the nose and around the gills at 12k miles. nose looks like its years old already. black is so unforgiving. also noticed the plastic and metal both seem very soft and easily damaged. honestly i think mine is made of lead and clay the way it dings and dents so easily
