Sometimes I wish that I had owned my car for the first 6 years off it's life so I could have kept it looking like your dads. What a nice looking car, could never tell that they haven't made the car for over ten years, looks brand new.

Twin Turbo and AWD even. Sure it's a beast but man when those turbos kick in....weeeeeee.
Here's some other interesting tid bit of info I found out about the car. My father bought the car pre-owned from a dealership in CT. Had only 15K miles on it back in 2000. He was told by someone it may have been a pace car for a local track. So I sent an email to a friend who works at Lime Rock Park.
"Josh,
I would say that most likely that is the case. (re. red 1995 Dodge Stealth R/T provenance)
It was in 1995 that the Skip Barber Racing School became sponsored by Dodge. That first year, Stealth R/Ts were used in the Skip Barber Driving School. Also at the time, Skip Barber the person owned both the track and the school (no longer the case, btw) and Dodge was also a track sponsor. So it's quite possible that the Stealth in question was used as a Lime Rock Park pace car.
I was the pr and marketing guy for the Skip Barber Racing School from 1989 through 2008 and have fairly intimate knowledge of the school and the track. I now do similar work for Lime Rock Park."

On these hard Mazda clear coats try going with Menzerna polish's or Meguair's M105 & M205. These work much more better in the remover of very minor scratches, swirls and oxidation on the Mazda's paint.
This VW CC was in decent shape. Mostly swirl marks and some minor scrapes on the bumpers. The interior was a complete mess though. It had at least .25 inches thick of sand in the carpets and trunk.
Exterior process:
- Wash and clay bar
- Poorboys SSR2
- Poorboys SSR1
- Poorboys polish with sealant
- Poorboys Black Hole
Interior process:
- Vacuum
- Poorboys Natural look dressing
- Poorboys Leather Stuff
