Default First time poster long time lurker - New to me C2S

It's taken me quite a while to finally take possession of my dream car! This past Friday I picked up a 2006 C2S. I proceeded to spend the last three days cleaning, clay barring, cleaning some more and then polishing it to the state you see below. It's now time to move on to the interior!

Boy these are gorgeous cars, aren't they? Looks like a great example. Congratulations and welcome to the family.

Congratulations! A beautiful car; really love the color. If you saw my post from earlier today, I too just joined the club for the first time. Same car, same year, just minus the roof. Now that you have so much experience detailing it to perfection, want to do the same thing to mine? : )

Congratulations to you! I just got mine in late September, I still find myself out in the garage late at night just looking at the car. Mine is same color but a 2005 Carrera Coupe.

Congratulations!
Beautiful car and I really like the side shot - these cars have timeless lines.
Looks like you put a good shine on her, too.
Since you're moving to the interior, I would suggest Leatherique for leather surfaces, and 303 for the plastic parts.

I went through the exact detailing and making it mine routine when I brought mine home.
Congrats from one recent '06 C2S new member to another!
