Oh that's nothing guys....here in Dubai you get all sorts of luxury cars going thru the grinder. People are impatient now a days...got to be somewhere, have a phone to answer, etc. etc.

I run my F430 through the laser wash here sometimes. Quick and cleans it well. Never hurt my Aston in the three years I had it. Seems to me this owner has the correct perspective about his car. Keep it clean, enjoy it, but don't treat it like what it isn't.

Real cars can do carwashes.

I agree with you! Have done all types of car washes on all my different cars and I have not noticed any scratches from them. I would rather take it to a 100% hand car wash, but sometimes I dont have an extra 30to45 min to wait for that. No matter how hard I try with a venture shield clear bra and waxing it still gets rock chips it even got keyed by some p-car hater. I wont spend more then 10 minutes being mad about it, its just a car and I will get it fixed. Its not a problem like cancer or death its just an inconvenience. And not before long it will be traded in for the newer better model.

I have friends with P-cars that wont take their cars on great drives out in the winding mountain country roads because they are afraid of rock chips....to me thats a crime that people are not enjoying driving their cars around.
