Hey I was looking into getting a pressure washer for upcoming spring. I want something with alot of power but not so much that it may hurt or damage the paint. Basically I want to know how much PSI and what brand to look for. I'm looking to spend around $150-200. Thanks

Don't even waste your money.. All you need is Z6, a water hose, and a decent sponge(preferrably 100% cotton!!) http://web.camaross.com/bb/wink.gif

I'd stay away from the power-washer, especially since your car has T-tops. They don't exactly hold up well under a high-pressure blast. http://web.camaross.com/bb/wink.gif

I have a small Campbell Hausfeld electric pressure washer. The sticker on the side says 1300 psi. It's a nice little washer but I find that I can do just as good a job on the car with a regular hose and not have to drag the thing all out and set it up. They are good at blasting off most of the mud and stuff in the wheel wells etc. so they can make that part of the job a little easier. I do find it useful for some other things around the house too so you should be able to find more uses for it.

Thanks for all the info. guys! Looks like I'll stay away from a pressure washer and put the money towards Zaino and mods!
