Video: 7 sexiest car-wash scenes on film

It's Friday afternoon, and in an effort to help you faster pass the last few hours of the work week, we want to call your attention to New York Magazine's video slideshow of the hottest car-wash scenes on film.

The spread is entertaining enough in its own right, but the real fun comes from the deadpan commentary provided by Debra Gorgos of Professional Carwashing & Detailing Magazine, who critiques the scrubbing skills of these scantily dressed stars.

As for the common (in Hollywood, at least) practice of using one's bikini-clad chest in place of a soapy sponge? Gorgos doesn't have too much of a problem with that: “If it gives you more pressure and helps you get the dirt off, I guess it's OK,” she says.

Check out the full video-and-commentary slideshow here, and watch our hands-down favorite--the classic roadside scene with Lucille in Cool Hand Luke--presented above.
