I had a black on black 01 Mustang GT. Having that car taught me two lessons.

1.) Never buy a black car
2.) Never allow someone else to wash your car.

It has always been my opinion that black is the best looking color for almost any car, but the time required to keep it looking clean is just too much for me. My car looked great when it was clean, but it would be dirty the very first time I drove it after I washed it.

Then one day I made the mistake of taking it to a hand car wash place because I wanted it clean and didn't want to wait until the weekend. After I got my car back, it was swirled to sh*t. I was never so pissed off in my life. I had it buffed twice but still it was never the same after the people at that car wash place ruined the finish. I didn't even like driving it anymore because it was swirled so bad. That was the last time I let someone else wash my car, now I do it myself. If I don't have time, then it would just stay dirty until I do have time to clean it.

As much as I hate a dirty car, I would pick a dirty car over a swirled car anyday.

He'd be lucky the carwash doesn't sue him for destroying their property.
