Yaris has cruddy paint?

OK. I love this car. Great gas mileage, and it is a company car, so I pay for nothing. It is a Barcelona Red 4-door S model. My ONLY complaint... CRAPPY PAINT! And I mean, really cheap thin easily scratched, etc.

My boss is always making comments about how my car is so scratched (I've only had it a year). I see the little scratches, but I treat this car no different than my personal vehicle, but the Yaris scratches if the wind blows. The worst part, the base under the red paint is WHITE! So every little scratch is SOOOOO obvious.

Anyone have this problem? I want to prove to my boss that it is NOT me. I guess crappy paint jobs is how they help to keep these cars cheap?!?

Any suggestions? Can't use the touch-up paint anymore because the paint has faded enough for it to be obvious when I use touch-up.

Thanks for the suggestions!
