My Countryman Is Filthy

The weather on the Eastcoast has been a mess. And another round is on the way. I can't wait for a break in between so I can get my hands on this car.

I feel for you. I moved from north Jersey 13 years ago. It's raining and windy here today and expected to go to 30 tonight. What color do you have. My cosmic blue shows dirt off really well.

COSMIC BLUE with anthracite wheels.....and like you said it shows of the dirt very well.
Im thinking about getting someone to detail it and throw some wax on. The guys at the dealer ship did a so so job on the prep. And it being a dark car you see every little thing.

My white CM is doing a fairly nice job of not showing off the dirt...it helps that I have a hot water hot in the garage that is permanently attache to my gas pressure washer...I am getting in the habit of giving Maynard a little warm bath every couple of days. They use volcanic red dirt on the icy roads here in central Oregon and it makes a mess of cars, but comes off easily.
