So what do you all recommend in place of the Armor All cleaner for the interior (dash board, etc.)? Now I have to throw out 3/4 of a container of the wipes.

Meguiar's is nice, but it doesn't smell as good as their exterior quick detailer. Sonax is very nice, but they're pricy. Adam's is also very good.

So I spent the whole day thinking the stupid bird poo from yesterday ate at the clear coat. Turns out that it was just water spots left over from when I gave the car a nice shower.

Made my day go faster at least.

Hmmm, was it around upper 70's - low 80's? D:

I shouldn't be so OCD since I will be dailying this for the foreseeable future but its my very first car that I purchased.

I'm sure the feeling will go away as time passes.

It will pass but slowly! Wait until you get your first ding (and it will happen). This is my 5th new car and I still almost cried when I got the first ding. The front now looks like I passed through an asteroid belt.

Damn... Well, I already had a random pebble scratch the windshield. It's not visible unless you really look, and I brushed it off. I should get that repaired soon lol

Btw, I saw you mentioned that you had a Talon TSI. Enjoy this little video from my current favorite channel: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUlUPVthdZs"]Regular Car Reviews: 1994 Eagle Talon Tsi - YouTube[/ame]

I know it is not a popular thing to say here as 98.8567% of the people on here are anti Mitsu but that Talon would have rocked your world back then. It is another one of those the numbers suck on paper but was way more effective in real life cars. Now it just seems quaint though. Not a single issue with it for almost 300,000 miles. Mind you when it started to go everything went at once but it owed me nothing by that point.

300,000 miles, thats impressive! And I'm sure it would've, just like how the 86 (past and present) don't look too good on paper (to a lot of people). I've been in old Eclipses and that was fun just sitting in the passenger's seat.
