2004 Basalt Black Cayenne S with Sportec 22's
This car has about 58k on it driven daily. Swirls, light scratches, all the goodies.

I had to polish this thing out with Menzerna SIP with a yellow edge 2k pad then follow it with Menzerna 106 with a blue pad, on top of that we had to wash it a second time because we had to get aggressive with this one.

Take a look:
