5 Hour Amateur Detail on IS300 SportCross

[OctaneGuy]

These were taken by my very good friend and fabulous photographer Dave Bunting who is an admin over at NorthAmericanMotoring.com

He is available for hire!!

If you notice the first picture has a MINI emblem front plate on it. I did that for two reasons.

1.) It's a tribute back to OUR favorite car
2.) To make sure people don't think these were taken for a Lexus ad. LOL.

Thanks guys. Glad you like the pictures.

As OctaneGuy mentioned, we both have MINIs. Here are some clickable pictures of my MINI after recent Meguiars detailing sessions.



Hopefully the rain we're having here goes away soon. I'd like to be able to get out and take some more shots this weekend.

The first time I replied to this post, I THOUGHT you were referring our Lexus as a baby.

Then I realized I posted a pic of my son! Thanks!! He turned 9 months as of yesterday..OMG, I just realized we missed his doctors appointment this morning...EEEK

Here's another pic of him taken at Christmas

Looking good. Always liked the SportCross.

[OctaneGuy]

Want to buy it? LOL. My wife wants something bigger like an RX330. EEEEEK. I'm completely serious!

Next car is for the wifey. She wants an Infiniti FX. I dunno what it is - I have a soft spot for wagons. I'd really like an S4 wagon but she won't have a wagon even though the FX is essentially a tall wagon!

Gotta pass - but it sure looks nice.

[OctaneGuy]

Heh heh, understood. I think if we had the money, we'd go for an FX as well although she says she would settle for a Murano as well, LOL. I agree though it basically IS a tall wagon! LOL. The S4 wagon is very nice!!

While I love driving the Sport Cross, I can only have one toy, and I still love my MINI more, so I gotta let her have the CAR she really wants. If only our Sport Cross had the looks of my MINI, I'd be cool with it. LOL.

Lots of power, smooth ride, great handling, more cargo space, looks good, but for some reason, it just doesn't give me the happiness that I have whenever I look at my MINI.

Keeping the wifey happy pays off, Richard.

Good luck on you car endeavours.

[OctaneGuy]

Ha ha, yeah you got that right. I'm trying!!!! LOL. I guess I'm also not looking forward to detailing an SUV, her Sport Cross is big enough. LOL
