    correct wording: Super Car VS Exotic

    what determines whether a vehicle is a sports car or super car or exotic? To me the line gets a bit defined by price. I would figure a vehicle is exotic b/c it's not obtainable by the masses (ie a $200k + price tag). A super car is one where the factory takes the basics of a sports car and...

    CG's Extreme Top One Step White carnauba & sealant in one

    I picked up a 16oz of this and I'm curious if i'm applying it wrong? Their site says it goes on thin and smoothly. Well it's VERY thick and hardly smooth to apply.

    Found a Temporary Shop location....good or bad deal?

    There is a local RV/Boat storage company who offer massive 15x20x50 garage bays for $305/mo. + utilities.

    ts|s Detailing: Show prep for a G8 GXP
