I have read multiple threads regarding the poor quality of Nissan paint, but my Z doesn't have any paint chips on the front fascia thus far. I have had it for about 3 months, and have 2200 on the odometer. Ran it through canyons driving "spiritedly" numerous amount of times, and expected to pick up a few pock marks. It leaves me to wonder if the had improved the paint for the latest model.

That would be a big no. Haven't done much freeway driving, have you?

Hehe.. Hawaiian roads,streets watever.. you drive by.. sucks.. my paint job isn't great.. I got a few tiny minute rock chips.. but my neighbor downstairs has an 05 but barely drives it and still has that new look.. I guess it depends on where you drive it and how the weather conditons are to wear out paint.

Around 80% of my driving is on the highway, but since I live in Los Angeles I don't have much opportunity to take it up to normal highway speeds. I guess that's why.
