LONDON — An entrepreneur in Surrey, England, boasts a nine-month waiting list for what he says is "the best car wash in the world." It ought to be; he charges $11,500 per car for the 61-step wash treatment.

Paul Dalton, interviewed by the U.K.'s Daily Record newspaper, says he spends 64 hours on each car for the high-priced Pinnacle Wash treatment. Among his secret weapons is a special Brazilian wax called Zymol Royale that he keeps locked up because of its scarcity. Dalton claims his wax finishes last a year.

Celebrities including soccer players and aging rocker Rod Stewart are among Dalton's clients; Stewart reportedly splurges on the Pinnacle Wash for his Ferrari Enzo.

What this means to you: Clean up your old car or just buy a new subcompact.

That's insane, but hey, i you wanna do it yourself, wax that Cavalier real good, they sell Zymol Royale at Amzon.com for the low low price of $7,118.00 (normally $9,499.00). Cool case too.

Youre a post whore..

nothing wrong with posting stuff

WTF, how did I miss this???

Man, how 11 grand would be nice right about now...

Wow...how is this thread now?

Youre a post whore..

Your threads like Word Association have turned half this site into post whores.

Thanks! I love these blue bars!

For 11 grand one could buy a car.....

Do I want a car wash or a new car....decisions decisions.

What something even more ridiculous? There's an $18,000 parrot at the pet store nearby. I'm pretty sure they know they'll never sell it though.

Everyone is asking the question, "a car or a car wash?" but the people getting this done don't think that way. They think "I just bought a $200k car, what's another $11k to make it look as good as possible?"

If the wax costs that much and there's 61 steps, that price really isn't bad.
