Chad,

I've been using NanoWax by Eagle One. You can get at pepboys and autozone. It easy to use
and the more coats you put on the deeper the shine. But there is a difference with waxes when you do
a porsche car which has a non metalic vs metallic paint jobs. The speed wax and or fast detailer sprays
has a tendency to show smear marks. Where they work really well on metallic paints. Ben Bales would
be a good resourse, since both of your cars are the same color. And Ben's car always looks great.
Just my two cents.

I like Zaino Z5 on my cars and Rejex on my wheels.
