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.
Notice ALL this stuff with my 2012 GT. Paint was crap, interior rough and unfinished, cheap.

I actually thought the interior and quality was better on my 2006 GT.

The 1999 GT I had was just total trash.
