Don't know who's heard about self healing paint? It looks very interesting and if I still have my S by the time it's generally available, I'd love to have a respray, will keep my car looking pristine!

Snake oil

 

I'll have some of that too please.

 

Yes please, doubt it would be cheap though....

 

Nice idea IIRC Nissan made some progress on this.

 

Yes. 370Z has it. The demo is brillo pad followed by hot water = no scratches!

I was going to say that there is some mileage in this technology.

Unfortunately its going to be expensive and they haven't worked out how to make it hard wearing yet. The nature of the paint means that it has to 'flow' when its damaged and that in turn means that it can't be too tough.

 

Not ideal for stone chips on a front bumper then

 

Lasts 3 years I've heard?
