Probably a few weeks in the winter: No snow to worry about, I don't drive it in the rain (if I can help it), and the SIM paint doesn't show dirt/dust very much.
Summer: It depends. I still try to avoid driving in the rain but afternoon T-storms pop up unexpectedly sometimes. Bugs are the main problem, but I try to spot-clean to get them off ASAP. One thing's for sure... SIM is much easier to maintain than the Black 5th Gen I used to have.

5 months, between getting her butt and face lift and being in the garage for 2 months. Then moving 500 miles, then becoming my DD. She has been been abused. :(

Longest for me was probably 2 weeks....I'm fine with the 'rugged and used' look of a dirty Camaro...but brush up against it and make a 'clean spot' and I totally lose it.

A couple days, at most. But that was because the plumbing was backed up and I didn't want the shower to overflow.
Oh wait, we're talking about the car?

DD here and I went about 3 weeks. It was pretty dirty but the snow just kept coming so there was no point in washing it.

I wash mine once a week. I think the longest I ever went without washing a car (not my Camaro) was 2 to 4 weeks.

Gone 3 weeks, it's a garage queen though, but will be washing her this weekend as I took her to work twice this week already and she's gotten a bit dirty.
