Washed our "new to us" Gen 2 in the driveway this weekend for the first time. This is by far the easiest car to hand wash I have ever owned. The big smooth sides, roof, and hood mean nothing gets hung up on fiddly styling details when sweeping across those surfaces with a towel, microfiber brush, or water blade. I had not appreciated before just how much time I was spending working around those styling features on other cars until their absence on this one made it apparent.
