Today I finally saw another frs
It was an ultimarine that looks like the guy hasn't washed it since he bought it. Caked on dirt the type you know it's been there for over a month. Kinda made me sad I feel every frs should take care of their frs like I do. Wash at least 1 time a week. What a shame is how I feel.

I totally agree. It's a sin to see another frs in shabby caked on grime and dirt. Especially what kills is if the car is clean but the rims are dirty aaaaaarrrgh!!!!

I try to wash mine at least once a week; exceptions for when it's raining for a prolonged period of time.

Sorry, but from long experience, I have learned that a dirty car is the way to go. Clean, bright, shiny cars attract dirtbags and trouble, particularly in urban areas.

Mods don't impress, people knowing how to drive do. This topic is foolish, making assumptions and judgement on someone you never met.

Demoon- I don't care if you mod or not just give it a wash within a month. No FRS should ever be that dirty.

Not everyone has the luxury of being able to wash their car once a week for various reasons. If you're volunteering to pay for professional washes for everyone, then that's a different story. Otherwise, grow up and realize that some people have actual responsibilities that take precedence over washing a car.

I saw a BRZ parked out front a AutoZone. Looked in that kind of condition and also looked like he took an industrial power washer and cleaned his wheels with acid. I don't know how he did it but the wheels were peeling and discolored. Anyway I felt bad, I figure the guy works there and is struggling to make his car payments.
