The DOHC i-VTEC badge peeled back within 2 years or so of purchasing. I have hand washed this car since it was new and was disgusted by the continuing peeling of the model badge, leaving a black sticky residue that attracts dirt.
Update from Jun 3, 2012: Since this complaint the clear coat has begun hazing and flaking off in patches across the roof. This car is 6 years old and the exterior has been well maintained. Several football size spots have surfaced making the appearance of this vehicle lousy.
