welcome!!
i would not let the dealer even wash my car though, so not sure whether the details are worth too much.
two different dealers have now washed my car, in spite of my request for them not to (when i took it in for service)-
new swirls each time, and the most recent got me some water spots too.
fortunately i was able to remove the spots without damage to the clearcoat. removing the swirls will also remove some of the clearcoat so i have been just using swirl covers for now (but those have to be reapplied continuously).

Good point, wanabe. I had to specifically tell my dealer face-to-face when it came time to service, "DO NOT wash my car!" He understood. He should have, because I was also pointing at him. 
I had them format some sort of message on my service receipt to say, "do not wash car!."

WOW!!! Feel the love! I'm so happy to be here. You guys are great I feel at home already. Just like my MR2 buddies. We have a nice group of MR2 guys in LA. Appreciate the big hello.
Neko is cat in Japanese, so neko_cat is redundant, but often neko is taken online so I've become redundant.
Which secret compartment?
Thanks for the tip on the FAQ I'll head right over there.

I got the nets too, but I never use them. What alarm did you get? I got the Honda alarm.
Good choice on the Honda warranty. How much did you get it for? It is worth it and it adds about 12 hp at the wheels.
