I don't understand why you guys take the Z to the car wash. I enjoy cleaning up the beast myself. And it's cheaper! Gotta save that penny whenever you can, especially since a fill up just cost me 68$!

that's pretty normal for a frameless window and a pressure washer.

Some of you lucky people don't live in Georgia. We are in a drought, and are no longer allowed to wash our cars ourselves. Unless your sneaky.

But last week I brought my Z to a touchless car wash, and I get the high pressure shot through the window that went straight to the crotch of the pants. I had about 20 minutes where it looked like I wet myself.

It just really makes me miss hand washing.

You guys don't have those self-car washes?

water gets into my windows all the time and I am 95% sure that this is the reason my JL Tweet is blown.

My doors also hold moisture for days after it rains
