Default Gto paint, help please!

ok so i am really considering an 04 gto red with 65k miles. Talked to the guy and everything sounds good except he said there is a quarter sized spot on the hood where the clear is faded. Is this a big problem with GTOs? I love detailing my car so this kind of has me scared that it will spread or that i will have more problems in the future. I can't go look at it as its out of state and dont want to waste a trip either. thanks for any help

Not sure how it's faded, sounds like it's pealed to me. See if he can send you a pic to look at.

If you're talking about what I'm thinking of, think hard about buying this car. My old Dakota had clear coat peeling problems when I got it and from there it just spread like wild fire. I had to get my whole truck repainted.

But like black_sheep said, have him email you some pictures and get advice from the LS1tech folk.
