X3 I wash mine all the time and keep it as clean as possible. My neighbor tells me I'm going to wash the paint off lol. I do show mine, mostly at weekly cruise-ins, but it's mostly street.

100% street here. Driven almost daily. Washed almost daily too though Washed everytime there's snow or salt crap and at the least every weekend.. interior is always clean too, dirtiest it ever gets is a few gas receipts in the center console, occasionally on the floor lol.

Never taken it to a show. Might have to do that sometime once I get a few more mods done.

This exactly. Never been to a show, and I don't really think there are many around here. Would love to go to a show though, but I don't think it's worthy. It's a bit rough.

I sure like to look at it though

10% show 90% street, same here. I do get quite a bit of interest in mine at cruise-ins. Mostly people are taken by the V8 because nobody really thinks, or apparently knows, that Chevrolet put a V8 in them. I get approached by people saying "I didn't know these had a V8" quite a bit.
