Something weird is going on with the GT's passenger-side A-pillar. There's an unmistakable "gouging" in the Midnight Blue paint where the A-pillar's weatherstriping meets the painted section of the passenger door. It's almost as if gravel got in between the weatherstriping and door frame, and then chewed into the door each time it was shut. There's even a white, chalky dust on the weatherstriping (shown in picture), but no actual "chunks" of anything large enough to cause the gouging are present (maybe whatever it was has all been ground into dust by now...). The upside is that this in an area you normally don't see (certainly not when the door is closed), so the damage is more a curiosity than anything else...
Very weird.
