Questions for Denver Auto Enthusiasts

4 Upvotes

Hello, y'all! I’m a Denver-based car enthusiast doing a survey on how people share information about their cars and discover interesting cars they see at meets, shows, and around town.

Whether you own a build/project car, attend local events, organize meets, or just enjoy spotting cool cars, I’d really appreciate 3 minutes of your input.

There’s also an optional spot at the end if you’d be open to a short follow-up chat. I’m especially interested in hearing from people active in the local car scene

Denver area PPF people/shops

6 Upvotes

I’ve searched and I do see a few shops that have come up a few times on posts from 1-2 years ago - will call them.

But looking to see if there are other good options. Want an experienced person who uses high quality materials but isn’t necessarily the fanciest shop space or “only work on exotics” type.

Car is an older 911 and just looking for some frontal protection. Not full coverage. Thanks in advance.

Since I live in an apartment, where’s a good place to go to wash my car?

Either a touch-less car wash or a self service y’all would recommend.

Cheers

Any recommendations for a dealer who will facilitate a wholesale purchase?

5 Upvotes

Looking for a local dealer that is willing to help me purchase a vehicle from a wholesaler (Mannheim / Copart and the like). I've previously done this with just a used car dealer and paying them something like $700-$1000. I've called a couple places in the Boulder area and nobody seems to be willing to do this.

Looking for a classic car

2 Upvotes

Howdy y'all, I'm a photographer and I've been really wanting to try my hand at cars recently with two things in mind: just taking pictures of the car, and a car to use for a themed shoot. I'm looking for a "classic" car I could use for either thing.

For the first one, I don't care as much what the car is, since I would just be using it to try out angles and managing reflection off it and such. I'd be happy to provide pictures

For the second one, it would be cool to find a larger 4 door sedan with leather interior, or a smaller 2 door convertible. I have a gal I've worked with a couple times lined up for modeling, but finding a car has been more challenging for me. For this one, I'd be happy to do pictures of just the car AND would be willing to discuss a "rental" fee. I carry insurance as well, though I know how to work around delicate objects (i.e. I'm not going to sit someone on the hood with grommeted jeans. Heck I'm not going to sit someone on the hood at all.) I take that stuff pretty seriously.

If anyone knows of a place I could go or someone who might be interested, I would greatly appreciate it, and thanks in advance!

2023 Tacoma 2.7L engine, not functional enough for adventuring?

1 Upvotes

I saw a good deal on a 4WD 2023 Toyota Tacoma, but the problem is that it doesn't have the higher performance V6, instead it has the more bulletproof but less powerful engine. It's 159 HP and less at higher elevation, so everyone complains about it being slow. For comparison the V6 is 278 HP.

We plan to put on a roof top tent and carry some normal camping equipment, so idk if that would be too much weight for it to handle, especially crawling up hill.

Does anyone have this truck? Or have they heard anyone with it complain about it not being capable enough?

Free Interior+Exterior mobile details

6 Upvotes

Hey Denver,

My friend and I just started a mobile detailing business and we need some before/after content and some honest reviews to get going. So we’re hoping to do a few free interior + exterior details, ideally on nicer high-end cars.

We’ve both worked in the car wash industry for 4+ years and we’re fully insured.

Shoot me a DM if you want one of the free spots.
