do you like it dirty or clean?

ok so instead of jacking someone else thread i decided to make my own...how many of you guys out there have to have your car EXTREMELY clean at all times? and how many like the dirty look, but will wash if the occasion calls? just wondering? cause whenever i drive it seems my evo is always the dirtiest haha..it's not that i dont keep it clean..it's just i wash it once a month or so. i like the dirt looks..makes it more aggressive looking. so tell me what you guys think?

Mine is a daily driver. So, my car is never extremely clean. But, I keep it reletively clean. I don't have crap all over the floors or in the trunk.

I don't have the motivation to be out side washing the car twice or more times a week like others. Going to the car wash costs like $10 a pop (with wax and spot free) so I am not willing to do that more than a couple times a month. Besides the only way to get a car truely clean is to spend a few (2-4) hours doing it yourself. The car wash is more like a bandaid.

Can we get an option for somewhere in the middle? Mine is also a daily driver, and while I don't spend hours upon hours detailing it (there just isn't enough time in the day), it does get handwashed, etc on a fairly regular basis.

Besides, I knew what my schedule was going to be like before I bought the car. That's why I bought silver!

Mine is a daily driver, but it gets washed at least twice a week, and dusted after every drive. When I go to work I am usually late because I drive around the parking structure (I don't park it outside) to find an end spot, and I don't park until I find one. That's just the way I am.
