So is this a preemptive analness(sp).
I'm doing my search for my 997 and I LOVE black, but I have a black 4Runner now and they are impossible to keep clean. Especially since my car sits outside overnight at least a third of the month. So I'm avoiding black full well knowing my 4Runner can be dirty and its ok....but my 997 will drive me nuts if its dirty all the time.
What category does that put me in?

My Seal Gray metallic does not show dirt, unless you have a trained eye.
Good luck in your search and keep us posted.

I bought a Sleeve for $3.99 which is made of Fabric and reusable. Like Al Gore, I want to do all I can to save the environment!

Well after reading this thread a few times I went over to the dark side. I washed my car this weekend. I got some of that Eagle 1 tire and wheel cleaner. It really made a difference on the appearance of the car. I use a small brush to get into the wheel. I never really understood how wide those damn wheels are. I can see why some of you take the wheels off to clean them. I must say it got a good sense of satisfaction cleaning the car. I then took it for a 50 mile jaunt to dry the rotors. It was a beautiful day to boot 60 degrees and sunny.
I attached a pic to prove my story!

Then we will eventually get a complete succinct list of things that REQUIRE attention on a regular basis.

What did you use on the tips? I'm blowing lots of soot over the stainless and need to know what to use to shine them up.....

IF it's summer and very warm maybe that water will take care of itself quick enough by evaporation. If cooler season, is it possible for water to take months to dry out?
Imagine water driven into "cracks" (repetition of same joke is also **** ) into suspension components, body panels, and elsewhere. The thought of "cranny "sat"uration" makes me want to keep drying my hands over and over.
