Just wondering How dirty you let your car get before you wash it and how often do you wash it?
For me i wash mine at least 2 times a week and it stays in the garage and i wipe her down with a micro fiber towel in the garage when she is still clean.

around twice a week..
i either just spray wit water and highway dry it...
or if it's lil more dirty, i go coin wash and than highway dries it.
I try not to wipe or have any contact other than water

About twice a year. It's only out for 5 months, and at the track once or twice. No rain, no dirt. The rest of the time it's maintained with a California duster / swiffer, and I use Mothers Showtime detailer and a microfiber cloth as a spot remover, if needed.
I have no time to wash my car. I clean/vacuum the interior about once a week. The car itself gets washed when I have time. This could be once a week or once every couple of months. I am in no hurry unless I run through some tar or get bird **** on the paint. I do clean the car (clay bar, three stage wax) throughly about twice a year when I am off work for an extended period of time.
Once in the last 8-10 months... I be lazy... Me likes the mother nature car wash.... Rain.. 
Used to it wash/wax once a month.. And once a year put the kaa on jack stands and wash anything/everything my hand can reach.. F that now...

Uhh wash? My Integra (granted not an ITR, but it wouldn't matter) has been washed probably 10 times in 8 years, about 6 of those before it had body damage and that was 2002. Last time was probably by some kid in Asspenny's neighborhood 3? years ago.
The S2000 gets washed more often, about once every 6 times it's driven...

My R is begging me for a wash, but the weather has been all loopy here in Texas. As soon as I get a chance to wash it, the rain hits. It's rough out here for a daily driven R.

I only wash it when I go somewhere special to show it off. Like a holiday or something I think that was about six times in 2.5 years, and two of those six were for the Thanksgiving meet here in the Metro area.
