I've bought a LOT of new cars. None of them have had swirl marks from delivery. YRMV. One had the front plate drilled when I always ask for them not to. Recent experience:I feel like since they do it so much they're not taking as much care as the owner would. What do dealers do besides peeling stickers and washing it? My dealer has a drive-through wash with brushes, no way I'm letting that touch brand new paint.
6 new Fords in the last 2 years. Zero swirls, all prepped and washed from 4 different dealers. No front plate drilled holes. Maybe it's just me and my dealer experience. You can ask them to hand wash it. Some will, some won't, some will say yes, then run it through the scratcher.
