Started Detailing New Toy

2008 Z06

I got a new toy this week and I had hoped to detail it this weekend but I spent more time driving it then detailing it. It had 5 miles on it when I picked it up and had been in the dealer's showroom. The had just got the car in and yet it had a lot of very light scratches on the truck lid and a few other places. At least the dealer did not have a chance to swirl it all up.


I used Menzerna Micro Polish with a white LC pad. It did a great job removing the light scratches with little effort. I hope to get a coat of Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant topped off with Sourveran Paste this week.

Rsurfer, It came with the wheels. I like the wheels but I would have perfered the polished aluminum over the chromed aluminum even though the chrome cost more.

I'm looking for the right yellow Porsche so I don't want to end up with to many yellow cars.

Dennis I have not really jump on the car yet but have had a chance to do a couple of laps in a Z06 at Sebring. You can't beat the car for the money. I love the heads up display. It compares very nicely to the Gallardo at a faction of the cost.

If I had 80K, that's what I'd get I figured it would compare to the Gallardo nicely, but like you said, for less than 1/2 the price! Nice purchase
