rock chips on the hood and bumper (it doesn't help that the car is black either!) and a scratch on the rear bumper. future paint job FTW!!

****ty weak thin mitsu paint in general is my biggest gripe.
then also as a result are a few stone chips on my front bumper and hood.
constant brake dust issues and warped rotors.
otherwise it just that i wish mine wasnt just a base gsr and i wish i would have sprung for a IX (mainly interior)

Crappy paint with peppered with chips, etched bug splats, a few scratches, and a couple of dings. Needs waxing way too often. Slight curbage on one wheel.
Interior rattles, especially with the AC on. Driver's side floor mat likes to wander. HVAC temp. knob is really stiff. It feels like it could break any time I use it.
Driver's side headlight oscillates up and down occasionally, as if possessed.
Exhaust is way too loud. It often sets off my wife's car alarm when I start it up. Sneaking out at night is a challenge.

water pump pulley seems to be making some ticking sounds. not all the time but noticeable when standing out side of the car while it idles.

1. It's red instead of Blue...
2. Theres a 1 sq inch patch of paint thats bubbling a little bit
3. The clutch smells like it's burning (yes it the stock clutch...32k miles)
4. It was a used car so there are a few things I would have done differently
