I found when I clean it and go out it is all dusty lose the shine. It is even worse when raining.
But hey when it is clean, it is 10x better looking than a lighter colour car.

Beautiful car & color!
This also seems to be another color combo we don't get in the US. I assume the black/grey two-tone is stock and not a custom job right? Please post a pic of your grey leather.

Let me see if I've got this right....
Mazda actually expects us to use these Headlight washers?!?
Just what I need.... washer fluid running down the side of my nicely waxed 8!?!
I think I'd rather have the drunk guy at a stop light
spit on and wipe them off...
To: David Bowie lookalike: I'm not flaming your car or your post.... it's a great color and a great car!
I just think headlight washers on any 8 is about as useless as +!+$ on a nun..

On the other hand, they are useful: the water spray has a lot of pressure and cleans the mud on the headlamp for good, when its raining. I PREFER that than "a drunk guy at the stop light spitting" on my 8

you know you can always get an aftermarket kit and those headlight washers will be gone : ) since spray will leave water spots on you car...that is why I never use my windshield washer unless it is an emergency
