Jay Leno needs a new detailer

I have always loved Jay Leno, he is a great funny guy and a car guy to boot. I love his web site and he has some awesome video's on it that are well worth watching. I happened to be watching the one on the Porsche GT2 and could NOT believe the buffer trails/holograms down the side of the red Porsche GT2. What a shame. Jay definitely needs a better detailer. I don't know if the dealer detailed the car or if it is actually Jays car but whoever buffed this car out should be ashamed. It is towards the end of the video when he is driving it.

Make sure you watch the ZR1 video while you are there.

Ouch...I sent Jay an email, told him to fly me out there to take care of that.

Shame I'm not in California, I'd love to work on that collection...

Wow, right when he's talking about being in third gear and minimal turbo lag you can see how bad it is. That's a shame, another "detailer" needs to hang his hat.

I don't think that's Jay's car. If you listen to the tech from Beverly Hills Porsche he mentions "the owner of this car...." Really enjoy Jay's commentary. I just learned where the 911 designation came from. Would be cool to sit around and share a pizza with Jay and talk shop.

Unfortunately Josh, detailing a car like that properly takes a back seat to the enthusiasts that buy the car for what it is. But we'll keep trying to put out the info and hopefully will reach all of them

He talked about that. Since he's pronounced it porsh for so many years, it's kind of stuck.

Head on over to autopia and I'll point them out. There's a handfull of guys that are nothing short of amazing.

Daniel knows who I'm talking about.

One of them is most definitely NOT Tyler Norwood
