    New Car Day! Black 2014 Mustang GT Track Pack!

    I took a 2013 GT as a rental to vegas and that formed my perception of this car. I was expecting to have to sink a few grand in suspension parts to bring it to where my S2000 is, but I was pleasantly shocked. It corners very flat and the brakes feel spectacular! There's torque everywhere and...

    New Car Day! Black 2014 Mustang GT Track Pack!

    Just picked up a 2014 Mustang GT Track Pack that I ordered a few months ago. Finish has no contamination that I can feel by hand and very, very light swirls in some areas. Not even in a hurry to correct these. I have some WG2.0 and Pinnacle Souveran waiting in the wings for the weekend. I...

    Swirls appearing after correction/OG

    I'm taking delivery of a new black car in a couple weeks and this is my chief concern. It sounds as though it could be yoru washing or drying technique. I'm very careful, but I know swirling is almost inevitable despite a cautious approach and carefully selected products and techniques...

    Swirls appearing after correction/OG

    Did you perform the correction? Maybe the detailer used a glaze to fill in the swirls and they are beginning to resurface.

    Definition of a "Chick Car"?

    As a straight man confindent in his orientation, allow me to give you my thoughts on the matter. I LOVE small cars - light, powerful, agile - roadsters rock - I love my S2000 and my older MR2s. These cars are beloved by women for other reasons, but for guys who enjoy driving - these cars are...
