I had One Black car, hard to keep clean, you learn/practice a lot about detailing whether you have the time or not.

I had One Black car, hard to keep clean, you learn/practice a lot about detailing whether you have the time or not.
I've gotten pretty anal, to the point I wash it in three to four sections depending on the heat of the day/sun. On a good cool day, I'll wash it in two sections.

Also all the little scuffs that happen over time and learning how to deal with those.

I've said it before, but a good, nice, clean, deep black is probably the most complementing colour(shade) you can put on a car, the only problem is maintenance... I did really want Red though, but 2019 for Canada didn't have it, which is stupid.

I am simply a hop skip and 45 min drive away. I been at a few events recently, might be looking at PITL if I can get my damn new tires soon.

I watched a dude across the street from me replace a WRX with a Crosstrek... He got an STi back this year and bye bye Crosstrek. Let's hope that guy with the CR-V comes back to his senses as well.

Yea, I had the same thought. It would be better with the double scoop and the side vents though like the 77 I posted earlier.

I had a blue one and they also had REAL functional vents that I really liked . They carried over the vents into the first gen Prelude. It was Suzuka built and already rusting after a few years with 64 Furious HP
