My Jet Black 1 is my 4th black car. The issue is not keeping it clean for me, the issue is keeping it clean without the inevitable swirl marks. Jet Black is a whole other deal.

I love black. I think it looks amazing on cars. I had a Grand National for 10yrs, but I wouldn't own a black car again. Black is a bitch.

This is my first black car. It DOES look absolutely gorgeous when clean (and pretty crummy when it's not), but I'm retired so I have some time to keep it looking reasonably good!
