You, Andrew,...at the .25 car wash? I would never expect that from one of the, if not THE cleanest Crossfires on the road!

I think an SRT-6 would handle that Shelby for $20k less !

See the GT-H on the stripes? Thats either the Hertz rental or a clone (I've already seen a nicer looking Hertz clone here on LI than the Ford version. Have you seen it NX at the beach?)

i have been using this car wash for 15 years... i am a big fan of a great quality .25 car wash. this particular one has hot soap & hot rinse with outstanding pressure... not need for sponging or wiping... with a good coat of wax the dirt rolls off. wash & dry. the best part is the flexible wand to get in to the
wheel wells, inside the rims & underside. you've seen the pics. i have never hand washed my crossfire at my house to this day.

Not bad at all for a projected 35 large.

i saw it in my auto week today... only it lacks the cool hertz hood. but the 5 speed option is a major plus... as well as the white of course.
