All factory paint will have orange peel to some degree. Even my wife's MBZ has noticeable orange peel. Unless the assembly line color sanded each vehicle (which would be next to impossible in heavy production) - there's going to be some amount of orange peel. A no peel paint job is a $10K+ show car level paint job. That's the difference between an OK to even a good factory paint job and a professional show car paint job.
I talked with a local paint/body shop that does many show cars and high-end exotics. He claimed that many factories design in orange peel to some degree in order to hide imperfections in the sheet metal and mis-alignment, and odd transitions between body surfaces.
