does the stock 5th gen max have a clear coat on the paint? i didn't purchase any additional paint/leather protection packages.
i think i'm going to buy some zaino for the max and i'm unsure whether to pick up Z-2 or Z-3. any advice from current zaino users?
thanks in advance.

Ok, for all you other guys, no rolling of the eyeballs!

Dave, in brief, you'll want the Z-2. I can't tell from your post if you're going with a complete suite of products so I won't go into all the lovely details of the Zaino line. Do a search on this board for "zaino" and you'll see a boat-load of discussion (yes, I'm a Zaino fanatic).

If you need any other info/suggestions/etc. don't hesitate to shout out.

Cheers!

Definitely has clear coat. A lot of people on edmunds.com said it didn't. They were wrong. I had to get a some minor body work done to my car last summer and the body shop confirmed it.
