The Official Washed and Waxed Thread!
I'm thinkin a 03/04 cobra or a c5 z06
I gotta start savin my pennies though.
I'm thinking I'm just gonna bike all of next year too and maybe buy another car next summer. I live about a mile off campus and don't really need a car, so I'll just be workin and savin

biking is awesome. faster than the bus, no parking space hunting, keeps the beer fat off.

Why are you selling it? Sometimes biking is faster than driving, especially when Port Republic Road gets backed up in the morning.

Not really sure what kind of camera you are using but the photos are massively overexposed. Seems to me that the camera is metering the light directly off the dark car and not incorporating the direct sunlight that is reflecting off of it. Try taking some sunset/sunrise pictures and guarenteed you will have better results. Car is looking good.

Likewise, the truck is absolutely filthy. 6 months of daily driving, plus playing in my clay/mud yard and one wash right after I bought it so it's definitely long overdue.

It just takes too long to wash something that big :p

We need to have an "Official Filthy Animal" thread to post pics of our disgustingly dirty cars. First pic must be the STi in Summit Point rally status...

washed mine after 7 months of filth-dom. i took all my gear to a secluded parking lot and washed it instead of using the pay-n-spray so i could take my time but it still had a ton of paint marring Cry thanks bugs....

thankfully the cops didn't catch me....freaking water shortage.

i 2nd the need for a "official dirty filthy turd pile" thread

Ciro has been putting up some impressive pics so I decided to put up some of my own detailing work!

I detail ambulances for Carilion Hospital in Roanoke when I'm home from school on breaks and summers. So I got called in this weekend to detail some trucks that will be at the upcoming Nascar race in Martinsville this weekend.

Here are a few pics. The lighting definitely left a lot to be desired but there wasn't much I could do about that at the time.

i hate detailing my own cars which are tiny in comparison to trucks. good work though.

pushing the 240 around as my daily whip since the si got stolen. so i figured i'd wash and wax 'er up. new head unit, new speakers. It's a pretty nice ride now for being 16 years old.
