A couple of weeks ago I put the car in the garage for the winter but didn't get a chance to wash it before a snow storm. I drove it for a couple of days in wet weather just before so it was a real mess. Couldn't leave it like that all winter so today now that it's almost forty and the hose thawed out my wife and I just washed it. Her in her snow clothes and me in shorts sneakers and a Hawian shirt.

We got some strange looks from the neighbors.

They just don't understand.

LOL. I hand washed the car to day (41 degrees) wearing Gortex from head-to-toe and rubber gloves. A guy has to do what he has to do.

 

It raining in California. My Z is all snug in it's warm bed here!



It's 45 degrees here as well.

BTW-The posters on the garage door are for the car's inspiration.

 

i just washed mine. temp is about 34 with a 15mph wind. the sun is shining too, lol. i couldn't dry the car fast enough before the water froze on it. had the start the car and turn all defrosters and heat up inside and was able to dry most of it, hahaha. now the icy driveway thing. oh well looks like i'm driving the truck again today.

 

Giving you all an E for effort datz what i'm talkin bout.......PRIDE

 

that's what separates the enthusiasts from the posers. glad to see these

whats the other car??

 

i used to have a 98 s14 that i cleaned almost everday and a 94 integra 4-door converted to type-r

 

Your first mistake, never drive your baby in wet weather.

BTW, mecinoid, ditto, I keep the baby dry, clean, and in a climate controlled garage. It's 12 degrees out today, it snowed a few inches Saturday, but my baby is clean and warm.

 

That's awsome your wife would get out their with you... Your a lucky man

 

Haha, I'm getting ready to go wash mine and it just snowed last night, .

The other day I spent like 3 hours washing and waxing my Z before I covered it. It was like 5 degrees out, but I was doing that on the garage. Still it was cold in there, and my girlfriend gets mad because I pay so much attention to my car. She says I'm obsessed. I say Damn Right!

 

every gf says that man! i hate it when they do- i feel like saying "does this car look like a civic to you?" but then again she drives one

 

I thought i was crazy for washing mine on saturday when it was 40 degrees and raining. I guess we are all a bunch of crazies in here.

 

dang, i cant beleive its colder down here than it is there... i also washed mine(36 degrees with ~10mph winds) in jeans and a regular long sleeve t-shirt. with hot water of course

but im hot natured, i was still sweating when i got done,
