    Meeting a childhood friend to detail a car like this! Wow. I'd have trouble getting my less than 64" self into that car so can only imagine what it was like for you. Love looking at the reflections in the reveal more than the car itself. I've watched the Yard Geek trailer several times in anticipation of more. You have come so far since you "quit your day job". ❤

      I can speak towards the McLaren carpet quality as I’ve done a 720 S and a 570 S the carpet are solid, fluffy enough where that you can vacuum them out, but not to the point where they trapped so much debris that it’s impossible to ever truly get them clean genuinely solid carpeting

    Well Mitch, I must say that this video was quite the shocker today. I have never seen a McLaren on the streets of YQR before, so it's something I will need to watch for. I'm happy to hear that the owner is actually driving his supercar somewhat, and not parking it in a museum-like garage like so many buyers of these types of cars are known to do. I'm guessing that this vehicle will be on display at the 'Labour Day Show N Shine' at Access Comm? It really should be *the* half-time show at Sunday's CFL game! 😁
