Back in black

Yes, black is a pain to maintain, but when it's clean, nothing compares! The wife gets jealous because I spend more time pampering the Z rather than her! LOL

Yeah, I've had the car for 9 days and I have already done a sythetic wax and buff, plus have wiped the dust off top to bottom with a special mitt about every other day. I bought 2 of those fancy mitts and rotate and wash. I've never pampered a car like that, but man it looks sexy when it's mirror shiny. Your right though, cleaning black is worth it, it gives me quality time with the car and wiping in down seems like petting a cat, you can almost hear it purr.

Nice choice! Pretty much picked up the same model as you, and I need to wax mine when I get a chance for sure. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you snag yours, minus the extras. Congrats though, I love mine but get a new deck ASAP!

Congrats I pick my Mag Black on Monday...i was worried with the black as well but as long as you maintain the exterior regular you will be fine.

Best of luck
