 I purchased this car with 4 miles on it.  I noticed after my first oil change that there were specs on the car's hood.  Very small at first then increasing to the size of a pea.  At my next oil change I mentioned it to service who took pics and sent to corporate as the dealer cannot make warranty decisions on leather and paint.  I had the regional director of service come out and inspect my vehicle who took more pics and turned into corporate.  I was told these were stones and not covered under warranty.  While I am not a care engineer, repair or sales person, I would think that if I was hit by something hit my car hard enough to chip my paint to the gray primer there would probably be a dent, which there is not.  As the chips are increasing in numbers and size, I am anticipating my entire hood will be gray and not the beautiful cosmic blue before the loan is even paid off.  So buyer beware and google mitsubitshi paint and I will assure you that one of the suggested phrases is mitsubitshi paint "chips" or "problems".
