    Gave her a good bath after a weekend and getting back from PPF.

    Someone had mentioned black cars are a pain to maintain and maybe in the past, but not today.

    I wash black cars once a week like I do/did any car I've owned in the past (no matter color). Between PPF and ceramic (and of course power washer) it takes no time. And EGO blower water shoots off and done.

    And the results....oh momma!!!

    Don't ask me--some think it's hard. Again between PPF, ceramic and sprays like PS Bead Maker, it's simple. Same thing I would do if my car were any other color. Raptor and 720 get a wash once a week--would be same if they were white.

    I do love black cars but something about these silvery whites cirrus grey and glacier white has me at the moment. Looks killer with the carbon and red accents.

    It's the right time to wait arpund here as the weather sucks. Urus should be at the dealer any day.

    Of all the new "Supercar SUV's", the Urus is definitely my favorite.

    From certain angles, the Onyx black looks to me to be a very dark charcoal gray- is this the case ?
