theyre a 200mph car at least the vanquish is or damn close to it. 0-60's are in the 4's. they arent a "supercar" but they are a grand touring car like the M6

It was "waxed". I used the tropi-care TC3 polymer sealent. Most of that time that is what I use on cars. If a car is dark colored and has swirls or spider scratches, I can use our liquid wax or paste wax. On a car like this with good paint, the TC3 will seal and protect the paint.
