Default Love the F-type so far

Can't find anything that I don't like about this car except maybe the infotainment but getting used to it slowly. Oh and why is it so hard to keep it clean lol. I'm a detailing freak and this thing taking a lot of my time but I love it lol

I have lots of airborne dust on some days (gardeners with their leaf blowers etc) So a couple years ago, I figured if I can't beat em, join em...and got one of these. Strong blower that blows most daily dust of the car without touching the paint. has a soft rubber tip. I still use it every day. I just leave it in the trunk.

I am convinced that BRG attracts dust and pollen faster than any other color. Here in DC, the car needs cleaning again if you leave it outside for more than 15 minutes.

Try living in NC during spring, if your car isn't covered and in a garage it will turn green from all the polen.

I love Black or BRG cars but after many years of constantly fighting to keep them clean gave up and started going to colors that are easier to keep clean.

Life is too short.

Wow, thanks for the tip. I do have one in my garage and I'll try it next time 👍

That is why I strongly fan for grey! And black wheels help too!

ultimate black does the same thing. The yellow pollen matches my brake calipers though

I also have the BRG/Brogue combo. Bought it because I love it! If I wanted something easy, I would have gotten a grey Toyota 4dr with a grey cloth interior with plastic floor mats. I drive my car every chance I get, just not to the local grocery store where the average shopper is aged 93 (similar to me?) and never looks back to go back. I rinse then wash it at least once a week and garage the car every day. Once again, if you want easy, get the grey Toyota.

It looks great on the F-Type. Maybe on a 4 dr. Toyota a little less so??
