MGM OWNERS NEED ADVISE

Looking at a mgm trd off road. Been reading about bad paint especially on passenger side. What years are affected? Here’s the link to tacoma. Does it look normal? They are willing to make deal on this one or a black one. https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/723486695/overview/

 

Looks normal to me. They are metallic paint so different angles and light cause the effect.

 

Look at it person if you can. It might be barely noticeable. My mgm might have a little of that but it’s hard to tell because when light hits it is changes. So it’s your call if it’s enough to bother you then don’t do it. Otherwise go for it. I really love my mgm.

 

No complaints with my MGM so far. Some of the pics don't look clear or pick up the detail, esp. with the background reflections. I'd rather see it in person to make any determination.

 

Mine looks fine. No idea where the notion of MGM is bad started. Light makes the paint a different color, depending on angle. Look at it in person and decide.

 

i didn't really go looking for a mgm tacoma but the one i bought had all the options i wanted and i went for it. Really love the color now, the metallic really pops in the sun and i get compliments all the time. couldn't see getting a tacoma in any other color now. I also dont have any issues with ,ine and i purchased it in November of 2016

 

It's a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. Dont let them deter you if you like the color, happy with mine

 

i dont have any pics now, but the passenger door on my mgm seems like a lighter shade of mgm.

 

I clay bar /wax /seal my paint twice a year.
Feels like silk and looks better than it did on the showroom floor.
Just take care of it and you'll be fine.

 

Hands down the best color by the way

 

Have had mine 3 years now. No issues whatsoever. Go for it.

 

Want to say mine is fine but it sort of wasnt

After a few weeks I developed a spot on front left fender. Dealer ended up saying it was a burn and repainted the whole fender. But other than that paint has been fine. It's hard to say anything positive about Toyota paint when it's so thin regardless of color lol

 

^^^^^^I did actually test drive it. This is the only pic I took of it. Should have posted pic. Forgot I had it.

 

MGM is a beautiful color, paint on my truck looks just fine.

 

That’s the only pic I took after test drive. I would have taken more but I didn’t know about mgm issues till I found it here online. It was a gloomy day of test drive. Anyone with a 2018 mgm have issues ?

 

No issues here. Love mine.

 

You will discover plenty to worry about if you choose black. Looks awesome when it’s perfect but it has to be a labor of love to keep it that way. From my experience. I’d go for the gray.

 

Love my MGM. Looks great in the sun. Like others have said if you like it go for it

 

I haven't noticed any issues in the paint... until... 20 seconds after I owned it and all the pollen in this city descended upon my truck. SPRING HAS SPRUNG!
