I like Meguiar's #26 (as a replacement to #16 since it's discon'd). What you're doing is adding a very thin additionaly layer of protection (pending the laws of diminishing returns doesn't kick that away) and, more so, adding a bit of depth and helping to loose that 'glassy' look.

Meguiar's #26 or Pinnacle Series II will work. Really any pur carnuba will work, just depends on your liking.

Thanks all for the kind words as well as the wax suggestions. I will lay down a layer of pure carnuba as soon as I can. I've been surprised on how many compliments I've gotten from the neighbors. Some have said that it even looks better than when I brought it home from the dealer. Duh!!!!

All the dealer does is wash it and coat it with armorall. Again, thanks to all for you input!

If I was you, I'd do the 3 step. But if not, at least use step 3. Otherwise, though, looks freakin' awesome. I wish I had as beautiful a beast.
