I picked up a BRZ Spider last night, may be the first?!

New car, came with extras:




Bonus egg-sack in the first photo.

I hosed the shit out of the wheelwell, but the jerk came back. The second time I made short work of it (her?) with the Dyson. There's a slew of old webs under the body on the driver's side, these things have been here a while.

I've only seen the one widow, but those other skinny jerks are plentiful. I took the first photo maybe an hour after pulling in from work, so they've been riding along.

I have to assume that dealerships have spider problems like everybody else, would it be out of line for me to ask that they put this thing up on a rack and de-spider it for me? Considering I've only had for fewer than 24 hours, and I'm 99% certain that these things came with the car.

Oh, the joys of living in AZ.

Burn the car.

Every once in a while, small spiders would tuck into my window sills mid summer. Usually tiny ones. No biggie.

One time I got in my car and rolled the window down. Drove to a stop sign, looked left, and this huge spider is lowering down next my face and on his way in between the door and the seat.

I hadn't been more terrified. I hate spiders

You dont know terrified until you have released the clutch trying to get away from and it stalling the car.

The Superstore. I shot an e-mail out to my salesdude, I can't imagine that they give me any static, the crew there is actually quite friendly and helpful.

Mostly I just want to put it up on a rack to get a better look, there's a lot of webs that I can see between the splashshield and body, and to put it up on stands would be bad when I flip out as a widow drops on my forehead.
