Am I the only one over protective about my investment.
My girlfriend thinks I am obsessed about my camaro, to the point where I park it way out of the way of other cars (really don't mine the walking), to the extent to where I see bird droppings or anything other foreign objects I end up popping the trunk and getting out a clean microfiber towel and some detail spray and telling her I'll catch up to you. Is it just me or do others have the same obsession.

Same thing with me. It's most of us on the forum.

I am the same way, I am willing to walk the distance because I am not willing to accept a dinged up car. However, I don't pull out a microfiber towel and detail spray and start cleaning it in the parking lot. I usually take it to a car wash or do it at home.
My camaro is being shipped today!!!!! |

Car wash = bad. I'm the only one who washes my car.

Don't Like it? Suggit.

Is this question really necessary?
 I don't think there's a single person on this board that isn't totally anal about their car....

Other than the investment part, I'm pretty protective of my Camaro

I'm the same way about the bird poop... It doesn't take long to etch your paint.
I don't really park in never-never land, but I usually do a paranoid walk around before getting back in. No dings yet(since Nov 09).
