As for what steps you need to perform on a new car, nothing changes. If you have contamination, use clay, a decon product, etc. If the finish has scratches/marring, correct it by polishing if you wish. If you want to protect it, use your choice of wax/sealant. ....etc, etc.

This... I told the dealership not to TOUCH my car. I didn't even want them to take the plastic off, but it's regulation for inspection in NY where I bought it. I polished with a fine polish to get any slight imperfections out and then used opti-coat on it which I HIGHLY recommend for Japanese paint!
