I have been checking the body panel fitment and have noticed that space seperating the panels on the rear quarter in front of the rear wheels is misaligned. I actually spent an hour gently pully and pushing to get the panels to line up. I hope they stay in the position I got them to.

That, along with my off-center passenger side exhaust tip, makes me wonder if anyone else is disappointed in the build quality. I have ZERO rattles, no mechanical issues, just body fitment issues.

Am I alone in this?
You bought an inexpensive, but very sporty, sports car. If you want high fit and finish and sport, buy a Porsche, Aston Martin, and Audi R8 or an AMG.

Sorry.

The 370 is great and very well built--for what I can tell so far. But I am not expecting perfect body panel gaps, perfect dashboard alignment, etc. If I want that, I would not have bought a Nissan.
