It's been pretty dry down here so all I've done is wipe her down with a microfiber towel (slightly wet on one end) once a week. And put a coat of wax on every other week.

She's low maintenance!

I only part that is hard to maintain in the wheels. The dust is driving me crazy. The outside is pretty easy, but the inside and lug nut area is a different story.

I have the Super Black color, so even when it's dry, dust shows up easily. I still haven't ordered a California car duster yet, so I just wipe the dust off with a cotton diaper. Sometimes, I put water on one, and then wipe it off with a dry one. I do this during the weekdays, and give it a good wash on the weekend. As for the wheels, they are constantly dirty, so I have to give them a good clean 2-3 times a week.

Have had mine since 9/11 have not washed it yet. Do not drive when it is raining and keep in the garage. Wipe it down with mcguires quick detail about once or twice a week. Clean wheels about 2 times a week. use soft pain brush to clean the lug nut holes works great at keeping it clean.
