It won't fade any faster than any other car that sits in the sun all day. I doubt you would really notice anything for at least 5-10 years though.

Your paint will not fade away. It will last longer away from the sun, but it won't fade away. You might see some blemishes and a loss of clear (shine) in about 7-8 years. It will not turn into a puke yellow color.

Depends on the color.
Ultra violet radiation (sun) is detrimental to old painting techniques (multiple layers of enamel) but less so with clearcoat. Still, the sun does the paint no benefit. Consider a car cover.

No, being in the sun is actually betterr for the paint cuz it allows it to cure harder everytime.

RealDeal24 - Seriously, what's up with your stupid threads? They're all either pointless or just plain retarded. Why do you make them? Quit making such retarded threads. In fact, quit posting for a while. Just watch others and read what they have to say.

Wow, you are so damn pathetic.. He erased his original post and wrote "my z is better than yours." You're so childish. Get yourself checked in at a mental institute, because you have problems.
