Do not allow dealer to remove plastic or wash when your new car arrives at dealership!

Not sure what direction to take on a new car which should be relatively swirl free being new. Car has been ordered and will arrive in February most likely. Two months to figure out what to do.
The old car.
Out of curiosity, when did you order that car? I ordered a 2SS about two months ago and it's supposed to be built this week. They started building these cars about 6 weeks ago and I don't think any have hit any of the dealerships in this area yet.
I would try to get your dealership to lock in a trade in value as soon as you can. When these cars become pretty readily available the market is going to get flooded with the old body style driving values down. Mine is a 2010 SS1 with 33K on it. I can turn it over to them by this Saturday and get 19,500 trade in value or if I decide to keep it until mine comes in it could be worth a little more or a little less depending on how the used market goes. I figure the window between the 2015's being gone and the 2016's becoming readily available is going to be the best time as far as value is concerned.
Are you getting the adjustable exhausted and magnetic ride control?
On mine I'm going to polish then "jewel" the paint and coat it with either Getecniq C1/EXO combination, or 22ple VX Pro2. Coatings help keep he car clean and makes washing a breeze.

I actually told the dealership they could remove the plastic, but not to wash etc. do they tend to damage the paint removing the plastic?

Just demand that they take the plastic off on delivery day while you are there. That way you can inspect the car together for any shipping damage etc and you can make sure they don't wash it.
