congrats with your 3P highland, waiting for a red one too (but with black interior). However regarding ceramic, these ceramic sprays are not really the same thing as a proper ceramic coating which will harden your paint. These sprays are better than nothing, but you should think of them like something like a "wax" almost.. Eg. it doesent last that long and it doesent make the paint harder or protect against swirls. However it is better than nothing and you can of course use this also on top of a real ceramic coat.
@OlavAlexanderMjelde The advantage of DIY is that you can leave overnight for curing in your garage instead of the shop's garage. Or when you go on a trip. I did mine in my garage as well. To do this under the sun is possible but harder because the product will harden quickly.
if you dont use it, you should use lock button. As the high pressure jets can in theory spray open the trunk by hitting the button. Its been known to happend to a lot of cars in car washes.
@@2024CorvetteE-Ray it can happend, if you google: car wash trunk open, you will find many hits. I know it has happend to some Teslas too, can happend to any car with electric rear tailgate. If the water jet hits at just the "right" angle, the rear hatch can think it wants to open.
carwash mode also forces the fresh air intake vent closed on the HVAC module, which is what prevents that moldy smell from happening over the years. Pressurized water around the windshield is the worst case for water ingress.
Yeah you are right. With the bolstered seats, ambient lighting, active dampening suspension, the sleek headlights and rear diffuser, the upgraded brakes, and not to mention the 0-60 in 2.9 secs and 1/4 mile in under 11 seconds. 510 hp plus and all for 45k after tax rebates wtf they suck. What do you drive my guy?
