Default *sigh* The joys of having an s2000

It is 1:55am here and I just got done washing and spraying down the S with some z6. I took the S to work today since it was fairly a descent day out. I checked the forecast to make sure it wasn't going to rain, sunny and cool weather turned into a 15 min shower. Idk about you guys but I hose/clean the car whenver it touches a drop of rain.

Call me crazy but I'm a freak at keeping the S spotless. What crazy things you find yourself doing out of the ordinary? My neighbors probably think I'm a weirdo. Lol

i threw my frozen hose in a garbage can and filled the can with hot water. worked well

and i'm kinda like the OP too but only with things i care about. my S and DSLR camera will pretty much remain in mint condition until the end of time (or until i sell them)

It's not an S2000 thing. I keep all three cars in the garage spotless, I HATE A DIRTY CAR.

I am more meticulous with the S2000, but she is the garage queen, after all...
