He actually uses his Mazda more then just a daily driver. And I would say based on pictures I have seen where he has journeyed that is relatively clean.

Don't forget I'm retired.
You could eat off most parts of my CX-5, except no one is allowed to have food anywhere near it...

If you looked closely, you would see this photo is of a LHD CX-5. I drive a RHD CX-5. I was too lazy to open my bonnet ( Hood ) so I googled it.

My "accents" were done by "Lobstah", via Rust-0leum.
With a tiny bit of help from Pliny The Elder, Russian River Brewing (American Double/Imperial IPA; 8%)
I still have to add a battery cover and some tasteful hose and wiring covers.
But not until I finish my exterior carbon fiber look accents.

You like IPA's? Now everything makes sense....
