Just set aside an extra $50 a month for car washes for the black paint.

Congratulations on the new SS. Just stay away from those automatic car washes with that black paint. It will leave lots of nasty clear coat scratches in your nice black paint. Only hand wash it when you can, buy stock in micro-fibre towels and spray detailer.
