    One final pic...I like the reflection in the passenger rear view mirror and how the car just seems to be dripping wet with Rossa Corsa paint.

    Thanks Paolo - appreciate the comments.

    I really don't know much about taking pictures but sometimes get in a groove and can compose a decent shot or two. It helps to have a beautiful object to shoot!!

    Yep, about 2 years ago. The previous owner had it done along with same red stitching in the carpets to match.

    That's the first really close-up shot I've seen of a challenge grill. So is it vented to cool the engine compartment? I wonder how much difference it makes.

    Thanks,

    Geno

    Yes it is vented, and it does make some difference. But mostly it just looks the business ;)

    Looks great, Rick! I'm looking forward to some better weather in Dallas this week. It's good to know that someone is getting some sunshine somewhere... :)

    Looks nice although it would be better if you washed it next time, before posting photos. Okay...... gorgeous! (and the right color for V-Day)

    Thanks for all the nice comments guys. She sure is a beauty and sometimes (like today) I can still hardly believe she's mine. She does have her minor blemishes - mostly stone chips and the like - nothing too unexpected for a 15 year old car.

    Paint: Meguiar's Ultimate Quik Detailer (and lots of microfiber)
    Leather: Meguiar's Gold Class Rich Leather Spray (and lots of microfiber)
    Glass: Hope's Perfect Glass (this stuff is amazing)
    Wheels: Armor-All all purpose cleaning wipes (and lots of microfiber)
    Tires: Forgot to dress the tires. Oops.
    All purpose: elbow grease and spit (seriously).

    Pretty low tech / inexpensive but the results are mighty fine.
