Anyone else get free car washes for life with their FRS?

Just wanted to know how common this was and what kinda wash the dealership offers (Hand Wash, Coupons to a particular wash, Cash Back with receipts)
I bought my FRS in Long Island and was told as long as I have the car I get free washes if the Service Department at the dealership is open.

Never heard of that. But I don't trust other people washing my car, so I wouldn't use it if I had it.

I've heard of it, but the dealership I bought mine from said they'd give me free oil changes for life. And a dealership I talked to in Florida said that they extend the warranty over the lifetime of the car.

The dealer I got mine from gave me a lifetime engine warranty, free oil changes for as long as I own the car, and free car washes as long as I own the car. I have never used the free car wash because they use a drive thru car wash, and its only free when I get my oil change. I had them do one oil change so far and they put the wrong oil in the car, so from now on ill be providing my own oil lol

All my car washes are free, all it cost me is 40-50 minutes of labor and it relaxes me for the so I think of it as free therapy also.

Do some drifting and break an axle (with stock everything of course, no modifications) and see if they replace it

I have it as well, but I leave signs in my car for them not to wash it.

On a whole I don't care if my car gets totaled, or whatever it's a replaceable machine. But when it comes to washing, maintenance and stuff I feel exactly the same way. I just wish I could paint and bondo, I would almost never have to take it to a shop for anything but the most difficult repairs.
