Clay Bar

1. Washed twice with Chemical Guys Clean Slate.

3. Applied Zymol Carbon wax with my hands (fun!). Went through six micro fiber towels removing the residue. Six!

She looks amazing. I’ve never seen it like this. I highly recommend the clay bar. It also made a HUGE difference on the glass. This was the first time I’d ever used one and I learned rather quickly that you really have to keep it well-lubed, or it will leave marks that are quite difficult to remove. Aside from that, it was a breeze. Here’s a pic. What looks like a dent in the rear bumper is a reflection of a car parked across the street. If this thing gets any shinier, it’ll be invisible!

I've never seen such a deep shine—-stunning and gorgeous!

I thought it was a decent looking car, and practical, and I really wanted a car with that much torque that gave 40 mpg. And with all of that grunt, they are certainly fun to drive.

When I returned from yet another 535d test drive to BMW of Beverly Hills, I parked right next to this stunning car. I literally did a triple take. I didn’t know about the arrow or the Zicker Line, or the Hoffmeister Kink, but I had never seen a big 4 door that caught my eye (and heart) so instantly. “What is that!?” I asked.

I drove her and bought her right then and never looked back, except for after I park. I always look back at least twice. BMW really hit the bullseye with this one. Both the coupe and the GC are stunning. For me, this is what car ownership is all about. I think that you need to love what you drive and be proud of it inside and out. The idea of buying a car just for transportation is unthinkable. I despise the Prius. Yes, I lamented not getting the 650, but then I saw the C8 Corvette and decided to get one of those for extreme road thrills. Also, my warranty expired yesterday. I think I’m more comfortable with the reliability of the N55.

Now that I’ve blathered on forever, I think I’ll drive to Malibu for a loaf of bread.

I'm on a similar boat, except I've known about the M6GC ever since I followed one. It was an awesome looking car, then I finally saw the M6 badge. Every angle of this car is so sexy.

I later got my 2016 535i M Performance, and I think it's a beautiful car with the exception of the rear end. I think it's the lights, but could never really figure what was lacking. After my 535i got totalled, I went to find another 535i. While waiting for the salesperson, I saw this my M6GC on the lot. Turns out they had just put the car out on the lot and wasn't even in the used car lot inventory books for sale yet. I ended up taking her home.

That is incredible. Nice work!
