You don’t live far from me. My policy is if you let me drive it, I’ll wash it.

I like a clean car, I alway wash mine atleast twice a week or the day after it rains. I wouldn’t say I’m obsessive about it, though I used to be. After 3 years I’m realizing that it’s just a grand prix. Not anything worth having or saving…plus the fact that I drive it every day, it’s gonna get scatches and rock chips. It doesn’t take much to look better than 90% of the ones out there

dark colored cars suck

i wash mine at least once a week, more if it rains. Everytime i drive in the rain, my nice chrome wheels get all foggy and sick looking. I worked hard for my car and im gonna take car of it. My neighbors know us as “The people with the clean cars”😃

I also think having a clean car not only makes it stand out, but makes it look 100% nicer

Yeah, I love the way my car looks when it is really clean though. I could have had a silver hatch that they had on the lot when I bought my car, but I think that darker colors look so much better and classier, so I had them bring in a galaxy gray from an ohio dealership so that I could have my darker car. It gets dirty faster, but it is so worth it.

my policy is… you break it you buy it! If you can drive it without stalling you are more then welcome to drive it and clean it.
