When I had my 360 corrected my detailer said the paint meter readings looked like every single panel had been replaced and repainted.

I asked how that was possible. He said, every Ferrari is like that from the factory.

Insane that they are not doing a better job since 2004.

Completely agree and don't get me started on that. One of the fenders on my uncle's GTO has a spot where someone at the factory burned through the clear coat very lightly so one of the rear fenders is going to be repainted.
