    I didn't buy the cheapest, i actually got near the most expensive paint job they have to offer. The presidential package, its right above the cheapest paint job, the ambassador package. Maaco is a piece of shit, they had over spray EVERYWHERE, all over my side mirrors, my muffler was painted green (the color of my car at the time). Not only that, i had to bring the vehicle back 2 or 3 times because i did not get what i paid for them to do. I paid for body work on the entire vehicle, they said they would remove every little dent, scratch and ding and i found like 3 dents after the first paint job.

    Yes you definitely get what you pay for when you go to maaco, spend a little extra money and go to a real body shop.

    Only Way id use maaco is if i do all the prep myself and take the car to them on a flat bed allready primed tacked and papered up. And id still bring my own paint and Clear Coat. Id Just be paying the 199.99 for them to do the spray work and spare my moms lungs from me spraying outside her house. Fortunatley the maaco near our house's has added a spray room and heat box.
