Have any of you noticed this? Should I be concerned? Not what I'm looking for on a new car...thoughts??

Every single one I’ve seen is like this, supposedly this will help — I’ve not yet tried it on my own car:

Yes, this is known. It is discussed extensively in these threads:
Thread 'ACF-50?'
Thread 'Pitting'
Thread 'White spotting on v6 supercharger.'

My wife's RAV4 had the same engine and had the same thing. I know we all think this is a 100k plus car, but it still is a Toyota wrapped by Lotus.

BTW: a RAV4 or Camry have their engines covered by a hood, ours are exposed.
