Since it's not a daily driver, and I wash it once a week (I enjoy that too), CQuartz is not needed

I'm one of the few out there that actually enjoys the waxing and polishing--call me crazy
I'm the same way - I used it as I wetsanded....

One good thing about a black C7 is the the rear bottom facia(sp?), doesn't look out of place with the rest of the color.

30% ceramic, which when blended with factory tint, is max allowed in Texas on Drivers side window.

Black looks awesome, but I have only owned 1 black car, an Infinity G37S when they first came out. I only had it for around 7 months because the cost of Tylenol was getting too much for dealing with the swirl marks.

Well as long as you hand wash, take car of paint (polish, wax) things are fine.

But yes, it's more prone to show things no doubt.

But momma when it's clean
