I've seen lakes that don't even look that wet.

Great job, any shot of the interior or the engine?

Excellent work as usual. Should take the car back to the dealer to show what REAL prep IS.

[artikxscout]

great work as always john. How long did it take you?

MY EYES, MY EYES!!!

Great save, I'd be pissed if my brand new M3 looked like that after only a few hundred miles... Was this dealer prep or a hack detailing job?

This must be a BMW thing. [although I've heard similar complaints about other high-end dealers]

They should offer another option: for an extra $100, the dealer WON'T wash, polish, or even touch the paint prior to delivery.

We got our Mini Cooper through the local BMW dealer and somehow we lucked out that they did not have time to take the buffer with the dry steel wool pad to the car before we picked it up.

VERY nice recovery. The owner should present the before & afters along with a bill for your services to the dealer. They won't do anything of course, but it would let them know that people are geting wise to this and that they should pay attention.

I know I've got a flair for the obvious ... but that car's finish now has excellent depth, wetness, and clarity. Simply beautiful.
