I have a couple of questions. What do you do/use to keep that shiny look to the tires? Also, since I bought my E, it has had this horrible film on it. I have washed it three times and the ugly film is still there. Apparently that's how it came from the dealer. I use the Classic Gold wash. Any suggestions? I guess the dealer used junky car wash techniques or is this film a "new car" phenomena.

Thank you. You gave me a new thought re the filmy substance. So today I washed the E again and applied the Eagle wax as I dried it. Still pretty filmy. Now it has wax swirled in with the film. But I strengthened myself up and started rubbing like heck, and I think I might have made a little headway. Started getting dark, but I hope it looks better when I see it tomorrow. I also used paper towels instead of just towels on the windows. Rubbed will hard and they definitely look less filmy this time around. I could tell as I drove it around tonight.
