I use a hand car wash....16 bucks. They take almost a 1/2 hour.....really meticulous, dry with micro fibre towels too. Best car was I know. I do it most of the time myself, but then winter rolls around....I know where to go.

The questions weren’t dumb but putting your car through one of those paint blaster was.

It is true. If you read the manual, then.... (well, you get the picture).

I think you need to turn in your "Porsche Man-Card" now...

As one of my old college friends used to say, "Before you do anything stupid again, freakin' call me!" That's what Rennlist is for!

Maybe he is saving up for a manual.

Jacking points in manual? Check.
Wheel bolt torque in manual? Check.

Touchless car wash? WTF are you thinking

I almost have to believe the original post is a joke. How can anyone dirve a Porsche and not know the basics? Have we reached a point where the average driver is totally incapable of changing a tire, because they can't be bothered to read the manual. The last time I looked, the average Porsche came equiped with a tool kit with a jack and very detailed instructions in the manual on how it all gets used.
