IMHO, the 9-5 paint (1999 Grey) seems easy to scratch or ding. Our car has never been in a car wash, and I also wash with care.
I have had good luck with both the 3M Clear Coat safe light scratch cleaners (not actual name) and Zaino's light cleaner.
Getting two or three good coats of wax protection, seems to help reduce the number of surprises during washes. I have three base coats of Zaino (not actually a wax) and have redone the top surfaces two more times. This over ten months. I will strip and re-base coat once a year.
You will read several differing views on waxes (it sometimes takes on a Zen like feel)... I now have gone from Eagle 1 > Maquiar's > to now Zaino's. I've used a few others "high end" waxes while helping other people wax cars. I like the Zaino's the best for now, alot of time required for the first (and for me, yearly)base application. But very easy to apply and remove, and on our car the look is quite "deep" and sparkling. This is the only wax that I have used where people stop me and comment on how the car looks...
Pick what works for you, and keep a good protective coat on the car.
Enjoy the car, they are great!!
