Looks even more obvious when you zoom in a little - very distinct line can be seen.
Quite why a new car would have had paint is a question which should be asked. Could have been done at the factory or the dealership. My guess is at the factory - most likely as a result of clumsy fitting of the door / damage / repaint. A decent bodyshop will be able to measure the paint thickness and confirm it 100%.
Personally, I would attempt to reject it on the basis of undisclosed damage and non-merchantable quality. You can reasonably expect a new car to have no known or previously corrected defects on delivery, and something fishy seems to have gone on here.
You would be shocked if you knew how many new cars are getting paint at the dealers
