Polishing and waxing by hand, worse than a gym session

Thank you
Its my second 2ZZ so you could say I'm a fan, I do prefer it a little more to the more modern VTEC engines but there isn't much in it I just like how it feels a little more old school in its change over

I've been nothing but impressed with the engine and how it seems to laugh in the face of any abuse you give it and remain solidly reliable.

Maybe it's just me, but I found that rather rude...
Had a chance to give it a spring clean today. Was only meant to be a quick wash, but I discovered one of the problems of owning a white car - tar spots. Door and front wings had hundreds of specks of black which showed up once the car had been washed, so it ended up being clayed, cleansed and waxed again :/
Results were worth it though...
Doesn't scrub up too bad

He's not wrong though. BMW haven't made a good looking car since the mid 00s except one. And that was the BMW M3 coupe.

I'm not sure what he means, I look at the pic of mine and I can see loads of faults but cant see anything on your GT86
As I used to work with a rally team I've got in-car cams, mics & GPS bits available so I gave the RS6 a quick blast tonight as a tester before doing a proper vid when the weather is good again. Stock RS6 exhaust doesn't sound too bad from the outside but the mic was placed a bit too close and blew the levels. I'll do better next time!
Ah yes, I know where you mean. We go out around there quite a bit so I'll keep an eye out for your car.
Think i'll probably be getting one soon hopefully!
Found an 'Ice Cube' running lights picture
