Exhaust is really dark
The insides of my exhaust are Really dark/black and if I wipe my finger on the dark area, its much darker than what I wiped on our odyssey and civic. I'm on the stock exhausts. I think it wasn't this dark before either.

I've got a sebring silver, my bumper accumulates lots of that carbon dust all over it. I've never seen a car that has clean exhaust tips, but this car does seem to put out a bit more carbon than others. My best guess is that these cars run rich when you get deep into the accelerator to keep things cool in the cc.

When I first got the car, it looked pretty normal (exhaust tips silver, inside sort of dark but still can see some color). It had a dark part on the bottom of the inside ( think of pouring water down a cylinder at a slight angle ), like dark residue.
Now it's just pitch black on the insides, kind of like dark powder or brake dust-looking

^unless you drive it stupid, if youre low RPM, hard on throttle the engine shoots a little more fuel into intake chamber and since air intake doesnt change much, you get more fuel -> runs richer -> more carbon.
