I dropped an empty gold money clip (shaped like a large paper clip) my wife gave me 25 years ago next to the driver seat of my 2011 CTS-V couple. It landed between the seat rail and the console and when I wedged my hand down there to get it, it "dropped" into a channel or hole next to the seat...

I have a 2011 CTS-V coupe with Recaro seats, that are black leather around the edges with a yellowish alcantra insert on the back and seat cushion. The insert is dirty/stained in the area where my legs meet the front leather thigh support. I've used Leather Magic foam on it and it helped, but...

My son told me that when he made the PGA Tour, he would buy me a Ferrari. He was about 18 at the time. After a successful college golf career (including qualifying for 2 US Amateur Championships), he turned pro and played the Hooters Tour. He "Monday qualified" 2 times for PGA events and...

What activities of other drivers make you the maddest? For example, is it the first guy in a line of 25 cars at a red light, who accelerates to a 14 sec. 0-30 time when the light turns green, thereby insuring only about 3 cars behind him make the light? Or is it the guy in long line of cars...

I've hung around here for years and am thinking about purchasing a 2011 CTS-V Coupe with the Recaro Ebony/Saffron seats. I would appreciate opinions from the experts about what leather care products to use to maintain the leather on these beautiful seats. I would also appreciate opinions as to...

Detailed my 2005 Cadillac CTS-V yesterday. Took almost all day. Process: Washed with DP Xtreme Foam and Gilmour Foam gun; Rinsed with CR Spotless; Cleaned stains off wheels with Menzerna Intense; Polished clean wheels with Z2; Removed RIDs with M105 and orange pad with PC 7336; Cleaned...

Did Tebow's performance this year (especially Saturday in the 4th quarter against the #3 defense in the country) win him the Heisman again?

Did anyone attend a performance of "Walking with Dinosaurs"? I went today and thought it was fabulous. I'm a big dinosaur, monster, Creature from the Black Lagoon fan....this performance was fantastic. Mike

I have a 2005 Cadillac CTS-V that has 12,000 miles. The seats were like new a few thousand miles ago, but now the driver's seat is developing "wrinkles" at the front thigh area. I put Leatherique reconditioner and Pristine Clean on it and it appeared a little better for about a week, but...

If I'm able to get some slight holograms off my black 2005 Cadillac CTS-V by using 106FF with a white pad (using a 7336), should I follow that with 106FF on a gray pad before going with my LSP? Mike

Got rid of my 350Z and bought a CTS-V. The V is a 2005 and had 4542 miles when I got it (major garage queen) last month. Here are my first pics after clay, Z-PC, Z-2 (X2), Z8 and today, S100. Enjoy! Mike

Last night I bought my wife a new Cadillac SRX (black). In washing it off today, I noticed that the "chrome" trim on the top of each door had rusty specks on it, from having sat outside for the last few months. This surface seems to be an ABS "chrome" surface, and not a metal surface. What...

I took a road trip in my 350Z this week and it got reasonably dirty (rained on, too). I decided to try the Griot Garage microfiber wash mitt I just received (you get 2 -- one orange and the other "ricer" lime green). They have microfiber "mop dreadlocks" hanging all around the mitt surface...

I've put just about everything on my 350Z in the last 2 1/2 years. After going back to straight Zaino a few months ago, I recently used some SSR 2.5 to remove some swirls. I followed that up with Wolfgang polish and LSP, just on one panel of the car. After washing it today, I covered the...

I have HRE wheels and have a small area of curb rash on my right front lip. Has anyone had experience in buffing out and repolishing a lip (no clearcoat)? If so, what tools/procedures?

Just installed this dry carbon dash in my 350Z:

Any opinions as to a good (inexpensive?) air wrench just for removing and putting back on wheels? (maybe 80 lb.ft. of torque) Preferrably one that will work well with 4.2 CFM @ 90psi or 5.6 CFM @ 40psi. Thanks.

For those who have noncleared lips on their wheels, what is the preferred method of polishing them [assume they are in excellent condition with no curb rash]? Do you use a dremel or some sort of rotary device with a buffing pad? I've been using Mother's Aluminum and Mag polish by hand and...

Went to a BMW Safety School Saturday. Excellent program and a lot of fun. HOWEVER, as part of the wet skid pad drills, a fire truck shot water from a fire hose as we drove around the pad, trying to experience oversteer and understeer. It misted rain the rest of the day. I got up Sunday...

Many layers of Zaino, but now topping with S100:
