Is your CL peeling like a banana???
Has anyone experienced what some of the TL owners are experiencing with their factory paint jobs?

This particular problem has me a bit worried, as I'm debating on whether to buy a CL-S. The car will be garaged, but it will be out in the elements as I'll be commuting to and from work in it.
Any comments are welcomed.

Well, I havent had that problem yet... cuz I havent owned any of my 3 Acuras for more then a year.
But two of them I crashed... so i can give my view on the paint (on the hood at least) from the accidents.
When I crashed my '99 TL (Naples Gold)... the paint simply cracked and flaked at every bend in the sheet metaal... and it peeled right off the bumper.
Scary.
But when I crashed my '01 CL (Red)... the paint did pretty well... flexing flowing with the bends in the metal.
If this has any reflection on anything I dont know...
but i felt like tellin ya...
and I think it does show a difference in quality between the two paint jobs... what relation to what that has, dont know.
