little white plastic piece inside gas cap

It definitely is.
Sounds like the "locking mechanism" on the fuel filler door is pretty cheesy, though.

In total, it would bring to two the number of things I've found below the quality aspects of a car of this caliber:

1. The floor mats -- cheapest carpet I have ever seen. Worst $100 I ever spent (they came from the factory -- but I technically worked them into my drastically reduced deal)
2. The locking thing on the fuel filler door. Really? it's a little plastic thing that goes in and out? Is this a ballpoint pen or a fuel filler door? Why not just leave it unlocked instead of this.
3. dishonorable mention: the tonneau cover hits its base a bit too hard and clunky in the top operation. It lacks a bit of refinement, but is nevertheless a pretty slick operation. So, the jury's still out on this one.

So, I'm still enjoying the ride.

I took mine out the day I got the car and have not put it back in since. In my mind it just isn't worth the cost.
