Products hit the market which were superior to Zaino. I discovered Swissvax waxes and sealants like Menzerna Power Lock. Zaino hasn't come out with anything new in how long now? I think they survive off the Corvette crowd...

Wow!! Impressive!

For a car with 100,000 miles on it, that thing looks like you just took ownership.

Well done

Most mods done, thinking of replacing the wheels and tires with 22" aftermarket 599M




The M startup image is really cool.

New to me for a week now.

Just got it last Monday, here is a couple before/after of the hitch install this weekend. So far, Hitch, custom hitch harness, Hardwired radar through rear view mirror and quite a bit of coding tweaks.

Completely random my wife out of all people pointed it out. I hope dealers aren't putting these on M sport cars. Somebody should go investigate.

I agree. The dealerships can't be responsible for this influx of incorrect badging.

I'm my line of work, this is considered stolen valor.

Such things are usually investigated by the authorities, indeed.
