Great job on the detailing. You car looks so shiny that your reflection on the car is very visible. Glad to know that there are alot of people on this forum who are as meticulous with their car as I am with mine. So I am not crazy after all.

i fully detailed my gs400 and sc430 before, 8 hrs on each (whole day basically) was pretty normal

I noticed that too. The wheels are not cleaned and probably not waxed either!
