I haven't completely given up, but I have significantly reduced my time detailing the Z in the last year and a half. I just can't find the energy to do a full detail all at once. Since it's my DD, I just try and keep things clean as we go. I am still very pleased with my efforts. When I really clean her up, you'd almost think she was new. People go when I tell them it has almost 60K miles

Assuming she comes away from the shop all ready to go with a new rear diff bushing today, I will do my best to reward her this weekend with a full 6 step exterior detail (wash, clay, polish, finish, glaze, wax) on those panels that need polishing. I polished the hood, roof and front fenders last detail, so they will just get the glaze and wax after wash and clay

I haven't done the door panels mainly because I drive with the windows down 95% of the time. If I used hands-free BT for my phone, I would probably would have done it a long time ago. I did the trunk probably 2+ years ago
