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 shit 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.

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.

Never.
The only time mine gets washed is if someone else does it.
Every now and then I take it up to Acura and they wash it out of pity.
The nipple is the only intuitive interface, everything else is learned.

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.She stays in the garage and doesn't move very much.
