The car color is white (pearl). Am concerned that repainting a brand new car may result in more problems than living with slight color mismatch.

Repainting is fine. Make sure they repaint the whole car so there are no mismatches.

I know my tacoma has been repainted and has since faded horribly. Can they heat the new finish to the standards in the factory. I would get some sort of guarantee in writing for down the road if the job goes sour. We have a 2002 XLE and love it! you'll be very pleased with the car.

Slightly mismatched color on the panels of any car should set off flashing red lights, klaxons, etc. The paint on a new car should be uniform. Sounds like the car has already suffered some damage that they tried to fix.

Repainting is not acceptable. It will ruin the value of the car and it will not match after a couple of years.. Insist on a different car.

If they are repainting the whole car, there should be no problems.

You bought it NEW?
There had to be some damage that they repaired......
I'd take it back and get a different car.
