And if you think this thread is a joke. Tell me why you always see Ads that state a car has never been driven in rain. That is no joke. No priest, no Rabbi no horse.....just tears. Which funnily enough look alot like rain.....The lord does work in mysterious ways....

Climate makes a big difference. A car I owned in NJ for 3 years looked worse after that period than a car (same model) I owned in CA for 14 years. That's why I used to lease on the East Coast, but I buy in CA.
As to "never driven in the rain" - take a look at the underside, wheel wells, suspension, etc. of such a car vs a car that's been driven in the rain, and you'll see the difference... Also, take a look after driving in the rain in areas where there's pollution and dirt, such as near quarries, etc. |

MCB + sitting in lot= oil pump failure I would call customer service (make sure to ask for the Ohio group) to try and get compensation. At least get the dealer's paint protection...

The dealership I bought it from is pretty crappy (but they have the best price), so basically the only inside place they have is the showroom.
