I thought this was interesting....

My dad went to our dealer to pick up some touch up paint for his '07 2.5 sedan and for my 3.5 coupe. I figured he was just going to come home with the little bottle like every other time I've got touch up paint before. He gets home and tells me that for his car, they gave him the simple bottle of paint, but for my car, they gave a 2-stage color and clearcoat treatment because the dealer said that my coupe has a special premium paint on it...

does the 3.5 or the coupe have a better paint job than other altimas?

I think they just ganked you into paying more for a larger than needed amount of paint
