Quality time with my Pcar
I woke up to a beautiful morning, and decided to wash my car. I took a few pictures of my car and wanted to share it with you car nuts.
Enjoy your labor day.

Your car looks great. I went to go see a friend this past Sunday and was absolutely smitten driving my '07 tt . Just had a sense of satisfaction I rarely experience with a material object.

The week before I washed and waxed mine and afterwards spent an hour just looking at it and taking pictures.....

Sanchez, your car looks great. Nice coat of wax on her too, really shines. After a detailed wash by hand, it's a tough choice between storing and keeping her 100% clean, or going out for a nice drive. With weather finally cooling off, a nice drive should win every time.

Nice use of depth of field in your pics.
Caring for and appreciating the design of our cars is part of the joy of ownership.
Well done.

Rxmike - so you drove your car from NY to Miami and back? Good for you for driving your car and not being worried about putting the extra miles. Piston some pics of your car when able.

First of all, beautiful car!!!

Reason I ask is because I love the way your wheel looks. I wanted to powder coat my wheel as well, but was advise against it by the service advisor. Later confirmed by other forum member that in the process of powder coat the wheel (baking), it will soften the forge wheel. Other said by carefully control the baking temperature; it should be okay.

I call my (long time) local wheel powder coating company and ask about temp control and powder coating forge wheel. They said they've done forge wheel before but cannot guarantee on the wheel strength afterward. So I have not done anything to my wheel yet.
