i havent made my purchase of the xb but when i first laid eyes on the new xb the factory paint job is crappy
its sooooo orange peel specially where that c pillar is
its not even smooth then i look at the doors and its like crap
take a look at darker color like black/blue/purple....
its very visible

 

I thought that virtually every new car has an orange peel finish especially on vertical surfaces. This is not normal?
You're right, the c-pillars are really bad.
