Which Clay Bar

I have a new four month old C6 Corvette (garage queen). 1000 miles. When I got the car I received it not detailed by the dealer. I removed the plastic shipping cover, washed and washed the car. I then applied Pinnacle Bodywork Shampoo, followed by two coats of Pinnacle Souveran Paste. I frequently use a quick detailer.
I am considering using a clay bar. Would the Pinnacle Orginal Clay or the new Pinnacle Ultra Clay be the best for my application.
Also I have been using Meguires Quick Detailer and I am considering switching to Pinnacle Crystal Mist, any advise pro or con??

I recently used the Pinnacle Ultra and found it to be very easy to use and it did a great job. Even though it is a SMALL bar, I cut it in half and it spread out nicely.

Pinnacle Ultra Poly Clay with Pinnacle Clay Lube will be the best option. Clay is very soft and elastic, and lube smells like melon.

You likely can get away with the Ultra Clay but I prefer a hardy clay for the first time. Remember Vettes are shipped via truck. I really love the Pinnacle Poly Clay (yellow) also , but missing on web so I might pickup a cheapy bar like the Optimum to use less frequently. (twice a year)

What about using on a car that hasn't been polished since repaintint four years ago? Which to start with or save the regular clay for undercarriage and rough spots?
