  • Finally got her done guys...

    Well, shes clean, finally clean. Any NJ residents or nearby states can feel the pain my car has had. all the crazy snow storms every other week, the cold weather, the absurdly salted roads, my cars taken a beating..i think the winter cold has finally passed and now were getting temperatures in high 50's. so spent a good amount of time pampering her and making her look right. Sorry i do not have any before pictures. There was honestly so much work to do that i didnt even think of before pictures. But anyway do enjoy the after shots

    after washing, i did the squeek test and to my surprise i had no wax protection. i must of left the salt on my car sit for wayyyy tooo long !! so i gave the gold class carnuaba plus wax a shot, and gotta say i love the hook. anyway enough rambling, here are the pics!

        I knew a guy in HS that graduated a year under me that had one of those, up against some of the other cars in our circle of friends, that car was no slouch!

            Looks great. Front end looks great considering you drive on salted/sanded roads.
            One question though: What is that pile of greenery in front of the garage?

                Ah yes, the first nice weekend of the year!

                We have to ask though, are you shy? Looks like you set the timer on the camera and then ran!

                  beautiful car.....AND WEATHER! High 50's already, up in northern pa we are finally kicking it into the upper 40's, but no sign of stopping! Amazing job! You'd never know this car was riding through terrible snow storms!

                      its a great car. yes it is powerful, im not going to lie, feeling 300ft lbs or torque at 3,000 RPM always seem to put a smile on my face, but besides that, its really nice to drive. it handles amazingly, and its super comfy with the suede seats. i couldnt be happier with it.

                      thanks zuke, the actual color is black mica (as per my username hehe). its really easy to make the paint pop.

                      thank you, the greenery you see in front of my garage would be the leftover branches that i still have not cleaned up. i had to cut down a tree that was getting too long and was on the vurge of timbering down.

                          Great job on the 3. I always have been a fan of them. Your Mazda looks fantastic. Great job. The paint really pops.

                              Looking good! I always wanted one of these, however, it would not fit my lifestyle. It would not be ideal for a FAMILY car. LOL.
