All it takes is one wash with some gritty mitt or drying towel and you've got swirls.

Same here. I'm fortunate enough that the owners of the large dealer we go to are long time family friends, the "hook up" pricing is good, but even better is I can say "let me know the day before it will be delivered, I want to be there when it comes off the trailer" All of my families vehicle purchases for the last 10+ years have been done that way... both of my dad's corvettes were delivered on Saturdays, they then gave me a tech bay to spend the day in, I pulled the plastics, washed, and buffed the car out and applied wax before it ever had a mile on the odometer.
Sadly my most recent vehicle was a leftover 09 and I didn't get to do factory ordered delivery. It was transferred in from another dealership and boy was it rough. It was 2 full days to get the paint restored to "new" but I can't complain since I saved a bundle over buying the same truck with a 2010 sticker on it.
