Wash & Dry
Clay Bar (still not sure this is necessary for a new car)
Scratch X (on a very few small scratches I've found already)
Glaze (Meguiars #7)
Sealant (Not sure what kind to get yet)
Wax
I don't think polishing the whole car will be necessary since there are no scratches or swirl marks on the paint currently.
Thanks again for the help guys, this forum is great.

You have a good plan. I totally agree with you on the polishing. You don't need to polish a new car unless for some strange reason, it was full of swirls and light scratches.
The Mugen that is languishing at the my dealership has had so many people's butts rub up against it, in that case, I would polish, but in your case, it is not necessary.
For a car that is new and shiny, just go ahead and clay, glaze, seal and wax. You will so happy that you did and the results will speak for themselves. You will also have great protection on your paint. Please post pics when you are done. Everyone here loves to see shiny cars.
