Anti-OCD

Worrying over every little blemish and speck of dirt doesn't even sound enjoyable to me. It would defeat my purpose for buying this car to begin with.

I keep it clean by running it through a touchless car wash every week or two. I know, blasphemy! If it makes you feel any better, I did spend about a week researching the car washes around me to make sure my car wouldn't get damaged.

I got made fun of for going outside at my job to clean off bird poop one day last summer, but I wasn't going to let that crap bake on my hood all day. I'd think anyone with a nice new car would do the same.

Let's put it this way. My car is typically one of the cleaner cars I see when I'm out driving around, but would probably be one of the dirtiest compared to the posters around here.

To each his own.

Negative! Sorry, but thats not close to being true. A house regains value as it is reconstructed. You can do siding, roof, carpet, kitchen, etc..... I know this for a fact since my house has doubled in value since all remodeling. YES..the economy suck RIGHT NOW...and ALL prices dropped but houses are THE ONLY GOOD INVESTMENT. There may be one more out there besides a house.....

I agree! But it does suck having blemishes tho..no denying that on anyone's part!!! I wash my Z 2-3x a week..just sucks that black gets dirty within a day of driving

It's the price you pay to have a nice car. But still all the while worth it! Nothing in life is perfect.... just enjoy what you have and live life to the fullest!
