ouarkie Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 To have a brake job done on tall 4 corners of this car costs $4k more than my house did. The car looks amazing. What did you do to it? Did it have swirls? Did you happen go help the neighbor in the yellow shirt wash her car when you were done? She looks like she could use another bucket and probably grit guards for her black car.

mc2hill Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Wow Eric, congrats! That is such an amazing looking car. I have gotten to see it in person, but detailing that beast would be great! Now you can get back to the the real world and get the water spots off your neighbors cars, since they don't know better than to wash them in the sun!

I drove 2 hours to detail this car Paint wasn't bad at all, but I 2 bucket washed, dried, clay'd, washed again, then hit it with FMP, and MSW. And of course all the other goodies on the tires, wheels, and interior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR6speed Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 They are a beast of a car, but I understand from an owner that comes to our monthly Cars & Coffee with his, they are the most uncomfortable car made. He says about 400-500 miles is tops before he needs to stop for a nice rest. Great job but what shape was the paint in to start with. Sounds like he at least takes care of it with regular details.

Wasnt bad by any means by there were some minor scratches that were there from normal driving. He drives it regularly so the clay was def needed.

randyfox Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 From what I understand those cars are absolute monsters. Most powerful NA car in the world if I remember correctly. What a dream it would be to detail one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrawlinTBSS Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Very nice job and car! My buddies mom used to have one as her daily driver. those things only MSRP for 450k tho. The 722 series has a bigger motor and may be close to 600k but you can sure as heck get an SLR for under 600k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
