I have opticoat 2.0 on my car. I dont' know why your quote is so high mine was applied for less than $500.
Water still beads beautifully. I still wax my car because opticoat doesn't give you that smooth feel when you glide your finger over it and optimum car wax really makes everything pop. There are no swirls to speak of after 1.5 years of owning the car since I applied it. Paint chips still happen so no coating is going to save you from that. All in all, I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to apply it to all my other cars.
