Hey everyone!
i just bought my Z last weekend, and decided not to get the teflon coating option(extra grand;P) but I was wondering do I need to wax it as soon as possible? If so, any recommendations for good waxes?
Thanks*

Ensure you get the paint clean, ie claybar before you start the wax. Will not hurt to start the wax of your choice. Ensure you claybar though to make sure the paint is clean. Never know how long the Z sat on the lot int he elements!

I've never had a stick car before, though i kind of knew how via driving my friend's cars...SOooo it is a work in progress
Trying to practice downshifting and such...anyone know of some good roads in SD ?

You need to strip off whatever bullsh!t wax is on the car by washing it with DAWN DISH SOAP,
