What are you trying to tell me is that BMW had lower their standards for the X3.
If you watched the show, the whole paint shop at the plant in SC had to change when they added the X3. They now combine the primer coat with the regular coat of paint (one step, instead of 2). I wonder if this affects the paint quality.
