Not much light when i took it. Tree on the hood is a little hard to see. Zaino is my product of choice.

You have to wax that hood a little more. You look like just a shadow.

Hey Ricky...GREAT looking car!!! Where are you in No. VA? Maybe we can get together and do some driving...I just bought my '04 Track Redline last week from Brown's in Fairfax!!! Shoot me a PM if you get a minute...

My wife is going to regret giving me the thumbs up to buy this car cause now I'm always in the garage!

Here's mine...Freshly washed and shined up with Mother's Showtime Instant Detailer. My Z isn't freshly waxed in this particular photo, but when I do wax it, I've been using Zymol. I plan on giving Zaino a shot later on this summer (had more than half a bottle of Zymol left in the garage and I wanted to use it all up first).

When a black car is waxed, it looks amazing.

What can I say...sometimes the sun shines down on you in just the right fashion. I can only take credit for the the detailing, though...fellow My350z.com member MattC was the one who snapped the photo for me.

Depends on the time of year....my Z is my everyday driver, so in the wintertime, it usually looks like it does in that picture that for a grand total of about 15 minutes after I wash it.

I hear ya on the winter thing dude, mass winters are a killer for Super-Black Z's (or any black car).. My SB Track is clean as long as it doesn't leave the driveway lol, last week I had just washed it.. snow was melting.. the SECOND I pulled the nose onto the street.. a car drives by and sprays me with snow water.. the pain of owning a black car, but these photos are the pleasure.

Always the way, isn't it? I wash my Z at the local touchless during the winter, and the 5-mile drive back home is always an adventure. People must think I'm outta my head when they see me swerving around the puddles and the roadside runoff. But as I'm sure everyone here agrees, the beauty of a squeaky-clean back Z is worth the efforts.
