Great thread!

I drive a BMW 2002 Z3, with 100K on it. I love that thing and plan to keep it forever. I only drive it in the spring/summer and store it for the winter. However, I did just pick up a hardtop and may use it for a couple of month in early spring (after I get it painted...wrong color right now).

TF will have to help me post a picture, but the car is my avatar.

For cleaning/protectant for my top I use RaggTopp. Here is a link. Autogeek is also the site I use for most of my car care needs:

I would never consider anything but a hand wash.

I have roll hoops. Some owners will fabricate a roll bar so that they can track the car. I don't track the car.

The other thing I love about this car, to be honest is that many parts are no longer available (like the hardtop). Subsequently, I like the search for the items that I want. I am a part of a Z3 community on bimmerforums.com, and I love the guys on there. They are so helpful. I have connected with a guy in my area and we work on our cars together.

I would love to hear what products people use for washing and detailing their cars. Will be back later to share.
