New guy here just picked up my 2001 996tt a week ago... Having fun so far.

Quick pics before I washed & detailed...

 

Spoon:

You got my dream car......someday! Tell me, How is the TT??? I really dream of getting one before I leave the planet.

We should put together a Starbucks run somewhere in town soon.

Welcome to the fun of keeping the BLACK car clean...Ha!

I know all to well how annoying black cars can be to keep clean and swirl free... But when it is... =]

 

Swirl Free:

I found the Holy Grail of Swirl Free - Griot's Garage - The orbital buffer and waxes and other things they supply really make the difference.

I worked mine today and got it looking so good I don't want to take it on the road.

Anyway thought that you might apprecieate this info. Perhaps you have a better way to keep the Black looking awesome.

My brother and I actually use Griots... And Zymol. Gotta see if I can find pics of his black 355... He spent hours making the paint look like it was straight from the factory...

 

Congrats...very nice ride! Black is a ***** to maintain but when it's clean for those 3.9 seconds after a wash; it looks amazing

 

Btw, where in Chicago are you? I'm in downtown and Glenview.

 

3.9 seconds of Beauty:

Yep know all about it....I am swearing off black cars after this one! It looks so good in the garage under the lights (just after the wax) and a mile or two down the road, well you know the rest...
