This is my personal car and I love it. It's a 2001 ES300 with 175,000 miles. It's my first C&B and I have to thank all the members on the boards for helping me with the questions I had concerning products, procedure,etc. I decided to rewash and wax the car since it survived over 40 rain falls in a month. A lot of rain came on a week ago thanks to Tropical Storm Fay. What impressed me the most was how the Meg's NXT 2.0 Wax held up beading over and over again over the long periods of rain. I'm very pleased at the paint's shine and flake properties for a car that's approaching the 200k mark. :D I haven't gotten to the interior yet but I will update ASAP. Only drawbacks I had from this C&B is the fact that the lighting really took away the deepness and gloss I see on the car especially on the rear quarter panel and it made the closeup camera shot glare.. Thanks again everyone!



Wash: Duragloss 901 Wash



Wheels: P21S



Wax: Meg's NXT 2.0 Tech Wax

looks awesome. i love to see cars that are 5-15 years old looking brand new. i'm sure there are a lot of lexus owners in your area that are envious of you :P



nothing like getting into and out of a clean car...
 
looks better than new. love to see, if i may, old cars in great shape. like seeing a woman of age that takes great care of herself.
 
Incredible for 175k+. I'm all about keeping the high-mileage cars looking fresh. Recently turned over 342k on my Acura. Keep up the great work!
 
Looking sharp!



I have a high-miler in my garage as well that is used for a DD. It's paid for and running great. It's an awesome feeling!
 
Great job. I did an ES a few weeks ago and felt like the paint was pretty tough to work on. I wouldnt use P21S on the wheels though. Its a pretty weak wax and the heat will melt/evaporate off pretty fast. Use a sealant of some sort and you should be good.
