OXYMORON! How does it clean the car? Carwash brushes touch the car, and are not automobile or paint friendly!
Me? NOPE - NEVER take ANY of my cars to a car wash! I either wash 'em myself, or (believe it or not) take a car to the dealer for a complimentary car wash. It helps if they know and like you!

wow, you took a lowered vette through one??
A stock height vette doesn't have much clearance on them, a lowered one definitely will not.

When I have time and want it done well, I wash it with the old bucket of water by hand.
In a hurry, I wash it at a spray wash and chamois it dry.
In a BIG hurry, I get a wash with a fill up at the no-touch and let it blow dry.
