With my work/ travel schedule detailing the cars on the weekends is not really an option. It so pains me to see my car so dirty!

I posted a couple of weeks ago that we bought a Mazda CX-7 for the SO. Since I have a 3 day weekend I was able to spend a good part of Saturday detailing the new ride. I am so out of shape! The heat and all the work wiped me out. But I sure enjoyed it! Thanks to several suggestions I went with Poorboy's Natty's Red as the LSP. Very pleased with the look of the red. :bigups

We passed (slowy, in traffic so there was plenty of time to get a nice look) on of these on the road Friday evening. It was silver in color. It is quite nice looking in design, smallish in size so is probably a nice get-around-town vehicle. Your choice of color probably amps up the looks a notch.
 
Nice looking car. I think the color is great. I think that the dealers are getting better at protecting the new cars because my recently purchased truck did not have the same paint condition as my 2003. Of course when I did purchase I instructed them to not detail my truck prior to it being released to me. I am sure that instruction saved me a lot of swirls.

At least you have a lot of shade. In my neighborhood I do not have a lot of shade during the day. But hot is hot and I can appreciate a good job done well!!
