Dirty Carphobia

This is my first first post, So hello. Been reading the forums for a while now. Tot i'd start contributing.

How many of you look the other way when you see a dirty car. Especially a dirty G. I can't stand it. I keep my 2006 G sparkling as much as possible, wash once a week or 2 weeks if i'm too busy, never longer. I've had it for a year now (pics coming soon). I'm talking about the really dirty cars, ones you know that haven't been washed and maintained for a long time, i.e. longer then a month. I don't get how people can drive it. I enjoy driving a clean car, No matter what kinda car it is. A clean G commands respect according to me. wat you guys think?

Welcome and join the club
I wash my car just about every week after commuting in her 500+ miles a week. Can't let it go for too long or I start thinking about how dirty it is lying in my bed at night and I can't sleep

For some reason, I just feel a lot better after washing my car...am I the only one that feels that way? haha. You know how they say doing cardio releases endorphins or whatever that make you happy...driving a clean G is the samething haha.

I keep some mcguire's quick detail and a rag in the car at all times just for this situation. By the way it is fricking colder than a witches titty in NorCal today

We got snow yesterday, I'll still wash the G once every 2 weeks, but only in the garage.

Man, you only wash your G once a week! I wash mine whenever it gets dirty. if that means twice a day, well good enough.

I used to wash my car twice a week. My neighbors thought that I was crazy. I've even washed my car in the rain and at 3 am.
