Went out and took some pics of the cars after detailing them. Let me know what you guys think.

Very clean rides, but they look incomplete without the “Green Peace” stickers, at least the Element.

Thanks, I like to be different :booty:

I almost got the new sentra se-r instead of the 3, I am sure more people would think that was uglier than the 3.

I especially like the dumpsters in the back of the first picture. Adds character.

they look REAL clean…except I’m not a fan of the Element…and the wagon well it’s better looking than an Element but I don’t like those either. You can detail a car good though

Umm…the new sentra is hideous. You made the “right” choice by choosing the 3.

Element might not be the best looking car, but it is really practical.

BTW, you do a great job of cleaning up the cars!

Thanks for the compliments on the detailing jobs. I actually claybarred both cars back in April and then put some NTX tech wax on them and have been using meguiars quick detail spray to keep them shiny. I am pretty OCD about keeping the cars clean, it is what I do to relax on the weekends or after a day in the office.

And I don’t care if people think that the car(s) are ugly. We like the Element for it’s quirky looks and it is so functional for our uses (biking, camping, ect.) and the 3 is great because it will be good for kids, it is safe, it has good MPG, and it is quicker than any of the other cars I have owned. To each his own, I guess.

yeah, the new spec-v sucks. if nissan was smart, they would have added independent rear suspension, and kept it on the b15 platform. my 06 weighs like 400 lbs less then the new ones. nissan came close, they finally got the engine right, but got the chassis wrong…
