Process for new car

I am looking to be buying a new car in the next couple of weeks. If time allows before my wedding/honeymoon, I would like to clean the car up a little bit. Assuming the paint is in good shape (no dealer induced scratches, etc.), what would be a good process? I am looking at a dark blue color for the car. I was thinking PwC using a PC7424, followed by EX x 2, then topped with some Natty's. Sound good? Too much? Missing a step? Thanks.
 
Thanks for the good wishes on the wedding. I can throw in the clay, as I think I still have a bar somewhere. I guess I was thinking that if it was new, it wouldn't need to be clayed. I think I will do it just for good measure. Another question, on the website, it says the car has aluminum alloy wheels with a silver finish. I was thinking of using some PP, followed by EX, and then topped with some Wheel Wax to make those babies shine and be protected. Good idea?
 
It really all depends on how long the towel pushers have had their hands on it. If it's been there a long time, it might be full of swirls, like most of the ones on our lot. My new truck I just got had a delivery date of 2-2-04 to another dealer so it sat for 6 months before I bought it, somehow it's relatively swirl free. I just clayed it tonight and I recommend any new car be clayed. I'm planning on SSR1, UPP, 81, TS when ever I get enough time to do it. You shouldn't need anything more than a light to medium swirl remover at most.
