I am starting to think this is the way to go. Today driving it for the first time in the daylight, I can see scratches in the plastic face of the radio...like they used the same rag they swirled the paint with on the inside. I called the sales guy and have an appointment to talk to the customer service manager. I will likely cancel the detail, as I think I can fix the swirls myself...but the radio face is another story.

Yeah I don't know about letting the dealership clean my car. They often like to use brushes which might be how the swirls came in the first place. If waxing doesn't help I'd try and give it a light buffing.

Gees, man (and wife)! You are lucky dudes (and dudettes) to have such a great car. I saw one in person the other day and it was the best looking convertible I've ever seen. Congrats and stay with C5...they'll steer you straight!
