When I picked up my RX-8 from the dealership in 2007, it was filthy. I should have refused the vehicle but I took it to a car wash. I discovered it was so covered with trail dust that the car actually had 2 tones of black.
Agincourt Mazda said they would detail the car for me and fix the problem...I went back the next day and the car was dirtier than when I first picked it up...went back the next day again only to discover that their "detail expert" had buffed the car with a drill buffer as hard as he could and that he did his best.
THEY GROUND ALL THE SEDIMENT INTO THE FINISH! They had never heard of claying a vehicle. Lesson learned. I'll be far more discriminating when I pick up the 370Z and they will be claying the vehicle before I accept it for delivery.
I stll have the RX-8 and will be keeping it but it will be needing a new paint job before its time.
