Just got a 2010 Silver 2LT w/V6 yesterday. It was sitting on the lot I am assuming quite a while becase it was built in later 09.

Got a couple questions:

The underside is a little rusty in places, is that cause for concern? (knowing that it most likely has sat on the lot for a long time)

Is the nice 3.6 VVT logo on the engine supposed to be white lettering or is that a modification that people do?

thanks

Congrats on the car, the "rust" might just be surface rust on the bare metal. As for the VVT, on mine it says 3.6L VVT V6 in silver.

Do you know if it is to be painted or not? I have just seen pictures that have it in white.

Was Just wondering.

Sure you could. That piece comes off too.

That's kind of surprising for a new car. I wouldn't think it should have rust at all until it's a couple of years old, especially with the rust inhibitors that are used nowadays.

Not really, many cars have cast iron parts. They get surface rust in a few days.
