I'm sure I'll be a bit anal too once she gets here tomorrow. Nothing wrong with showing some love to our babies.

I washed mine twice in about a 5 hour period the day after I picked her up. I also washed it a couple of days ago while it was raining! Gald to know I'm not the only Looney Tune...

I woke up this morning, washed my 135i and my 96 Camry (winter car), went for a drive, unfortunately parked under a tree and got tree sap all over my car. Had to rush home do another wash before heading out for dinner.

I haven't got my 135i yet but the last time I washed my PT Cruiser was in November.
I do want to keep the 135i clean so I'm thinking about making a regular appointment with a local detailer. I just don't have the desire to wash it myself all the time. Dan |

You WILL. While it's still brand new. It's all part of curing yourself after that horrible "wait".

Yeah, I read somewhere at somepoint that it hurts the paint if you wash it when the paint is warm (sun), so I usually wash it at night or first thing in the AM.

I drove from Philly to my house, got there at 1:30am, unpacked the car, reconfigured it for autocross, then washed the car at 3:30am, then took a shower and left for autocross. So, in lieu of grabbing some shut-eye, I opted to pull and all-nighter and wash the car.
Sounds like a common theme here! |
