Marvin,
Well, this really sucks! I remember when I first discovered the problem, your ody was still on order and we all held our breath hoping it would not be like mine. Have you compared it to my pics? I am curious to see if you are looking at the same scenario. By the way, my pics don’t convey what is seen in person. It is very hard to capture the variation on camera. It is much worse when you're standing next to it. Bad enough to have complete strangers comment about it. I would have been more willing to just live with mine except for the fact that 2 independent body pros said it was worth substantially less than full market value.
It sounds like you have made a sound decision in your case. Your choice will let you keep your sanity. You know what I’ve gone through, and I still don’t have a replacement (although it has finally arrived at the dealer). I hope you speak up loud and clear to let Honda know this is unacceptable. If they get enough feedback they will either figure out how to solve the problem or drop the color. I doubt if a mass recall is likely.
Again…...sorry to hear it.
