I know I’ve had some negative commentary about the Camaro’s fit and finish, but wowza, I was really surprised at how fords flagship sports car was slapped together. The paint was definitely thicker than GM’s, but overspray “lips” at the edges of seams and very obvious orange peal was really difficult to look at. As far as panel gaps, pretty bad on some cars and not so great on others. If you looked close, a lot of the tacked on exterior goodies we’re poorly designed. From a distance of 10’ no problem, but close up, I just couldn’t understand the lack of effort to tidy things up.  and never mind that ridiculous tranny dial. Cheap to to the max.
So with all that said… I take back some of my criticism of GM’s fit and finish.

The focus is on performance with these cars. You realize to get that performance from a foreign car you will be in the 6 figures.
