I hate youtube, videos take so damn long to load up. I've seen that fifth gear before though. Interesting video

I wonder how many folks he tells that the Zymol wax he uses is a lifetime supply once purchased. I mean, for $6k it makes sense - but it does take some of the mystique away.

DAMN!! I mean if ppl are spending so much to buy those exotics I guess he can charge those prices. Especially when you make the cars shine like that.

61 step wash process??!! I would like to see that.

Makes me want to get out there and really shine my car up.
