You guys crack me up.
How does the Zaino compare to NXT 2.0? That stuff worked fantastically, too bad my car was covered in pollen the next morning...stupid not having a garage.

I love the Z-CS Clear Seal... It's $30 for a 6oz bottle, but makes my white car look as good as a white car can!

The look and slickness are pretty good. I still love the warm, deep look of a carnauba. I'll wait to give a full judgment on it until after it has time to cure. I think Meg's 26 still gives the deepest, wet shine of anything I have tried.

I can't really compare it to NXT 2.0 either. I only used 2.0 on other cars and my wheels. I'll get it on mine eventually. 2.0 has been getting awesome reviews from just about everyone who has used it though.

The install is first rate, nothing being rushed.

Bad news.. it'll probably be another 2 weeks before it'll be 100% complete. He's leaving town later next week for a week. So, it'll be the beginning part of April before my D-Specs go in.

I took a few pics of the install so far, will post them later.

I sorta like the side profile, but the front fascia of the genesis coupe looks cruddy

That's the hyundai that I got to see or get paid to see for the whole market research thing I got in the mail awhile ago. The really touted the 300hp... They had that a mustang, rx-7, gallant and a civic something and an old hyundai, but you could completely tell it was a hyundai, well I could. It showed me, if anything, that the marketing people are entirely clueless about why we get the Mustang and why it's popular. Sure the 300hp is a very good thing, but it isn't the only thing. It's funny because that is the only way they can compare to the Mustang. Anyway it really wasn't as nice as some of the cars there. In the final question and answer section I could tell that they didn't like my answers as I wasn't invited back for the extra 75 bucks or whatever it was to go over the car and other things...... LOL They picked the WRONG person to as they opinion of on that car. It got to the point the I was really enjoying myself picking it apart and there are many little things about it that are so odd it was easy.

I think that you are a perfect person to do that sort of critiquing. I totally agree with everything that you said even though I've never even seen the car in person. Reviewers forget about the Mustang's history and following. I think they owe you $75!

^true, I wrote a paper about just that. Besides, the Hyundai doesnt look anything at all like an American car, which is what I think they were trying to go for. It looks Japanese, and at the best European.

I have done a few of those in the past, I guess they don't like my answers either since I haven't been invited back
