Our new NBP TSX
My fiance and I just bought our first car together and we both love it. I haven't taken a bunch of pics yet but here's one to start off my posts here as a noob.
Enjoy....

It wasn't until after the first wash that I noticed the blue and purple-ish metal flake in the Black Nighthawk Pearl. I think Acura has some really nice paint colors!

Actually, the vette is green. It's a very dark metallic green so you really can't tell unless good lighting. This picture that I took above was just something I shot real quick with bad lighting. But thanks for the comments. I love riding in the new TSX but nothing compares to cruising down the road in the vette.

I see a two car garage... That poses some problems now.
By the way, if you've had the vette for a while, any tips or tricks on maintaining a dark color car (swirl mark issues, scratches, etc.).
Oh, and the grill on the Ford is sweet.

Tips, sure:
keep it clean, use the california blade to dry, use only white 100% cotton made in USA towels, and ZAINO!

BTW, I am also a fan of polymer sealant.

If you put the same amount of work into the job, ie-one coat, then yes, it doesn't look as 'deep' as a thick wax. But the thing I like about a polymer type coat is that it lasts much longer and seems to protect better. I've never had a waxed finish stay looking 'waxed' after getting dirty and washing once. With the polymer (Zaino) it still has that 'waxed' look after washing a few times. But boy, do 2 or even 3 coats of Zaino and watch out! Can you say slick!!! After putting 3 coats of Zaino on the vette I literally could not rest a towell anywhere on the car w/out the towell falling off.
