It's actually an 2006 Audi A6. They changed the car this year. The grill is different and they made it longer. I'm 6'6" and I actually fit very comfortable inside. It's hard to tell it from an A8 because it's ;onger. Much better deal than the A8 which costs $30,000 more.
I'd put this car up against a BMW anyday!! Oh....and thanks for the feedback!

Oh my gosh! I think you could sell that old wax for a lot of money. Start it out on ebay as being blessed or haunted or something - you will get rich quick.

Bigunns, do you have any more pics of your A6? A very elegant and classy vehicle I must say!

WOW!

Pretty much a perfect shot sir!

What else did you do to the paint?

Thanks so much....I even impressed myself because I did it all by hand. Originally, I used the Megs 4step process. I clayed it, used the Megs paint cleaner, polished it and then toppped it off with Megs NXT. About a month and half later, I polished it again using Megs polish, waxed it with NXT and then used the $3.00 Kit Carnuba Paste on top of the NXT.

Since then I got my 1st order from AG....including a PC. I washed it with NST7 and topped it with Pinnacle Crystal Mist......real nice product, it shines even more. The grand plan is to use a PC and get the very minor swirls out with XMT1 and then use Wolfgang High Gloss Sealant and then top it off with 2 coats of Max Wax and then use CM afterwards. I can't to see the results.
I'll post the pics on my web site.

Justin, I just saw the job you did on that 1998 Lexus....WOW!! Very nice.......I feel honored that you gave that compliment coming from a pro like yourself!! I'm still a newbie but I share the same passion about doing the best job possible when detailing. I actually have a 1998 Infiniti Q45 that I am going to be tackling!! If I can, I'll be hitting you up for advice.

I didn't know they had contests but I really would like to see where it stacks up. I know there are a lot of pro's out there. I'm just a rookie :cheers:
