Default Help Me!

Have I lost my mind?
I purchased a new S2000 two weeks ago and still have under a hundred miles on her, with one coat of Meguires # 7 Polish and three coats of Meguires # 36 Yellow Wax laying on her body.
She looks awesome and is BlackBlack
Here's my problem,,,,
I bought her with only one mission in mind " to drive only in inclement weather " as I needed something nice to ride when I couldn't ride my new HD Road King.
She looks to sweet to only drive in the rain!
Today is going to be nice and I am parking the Road King, and will be in the S2000 cruising to find a real rainy day bomb----Maybe a mustang.

Let me get this straight, you bought the S2000 as a beater to drive in the rain. That is one of the strangest things I have heard in quit some time. I'm no expert but you may need help indeed.

Well, first of all, you need to stop using that shitty wax on your blk/blk and get Zymol ITAL or the Zaino products... they are far and away superiour looking and easier to use.

If it is a true beater car, get a hardtop. Save urself the frustration of maintaining the softtop and looking @the back window.

My motorcycle is gathering dust too since I got the S2000. The S2000 hasn't seen rain yet and probably won't unless I misjudge the weather. I'll keep it in a heated garage and avoid the snow and salt.

My wife agreed with me on the S2000. I don't know if I can get that agreement any time soon again. So I want the S2000 to be like new for 10+ years and at the end of the time still drive like new. Since I commute to work by train, I need to drive 1000 to 1500 miles a year. In addition to that maybe another 2-3000 miles of "fun" driving. That's 3-4500 miles a year. No reason why the adventure can't last. But then again, Honda will do something to make me want another one in 3 years. I hate when they do that.
