Default New car/paint swirls

OK, got my brand new 225 moro blue today. Luv it. Never had a sports car before. Driving it thinking chip? What for? But that's just my inexperience speaking.

Anyway...so before it came I was waiting for it and decided to call and ask what the dealer prep was like. Gonna ask them to hold off washing it to avoid swirly scratches on the paint. When I called they said it was in. So too late. Get it late late in the day (7:30 p.m.) and lo and behold....some swirls on my new babe. Haven't seen it in the light of day but still, any thoughts on how I should approach this?

I've got Zaino on order..but thinking hey I shouldn't have to fix this. They got a good bit of change out of me. On the other hand, what can the dealer do for me?

Advice from the experienced is sorely needed.

I've actually been to the dealer when someone walked in with the same complaint. If I were you, I would just use the Zaino Z-5 to get rid of the swirl marks. My car is brilliant black and had a really really bad swirl marks. I've used Z-5 and the swirl marks are now gone. If you leave for the dealer to take care of it, heck, sounds like they already took care of it. <blank stare>

Had the same problem with my moroblue TTR. Dealer sent car back to Audi factory to fix it (about 600km from here) before delivery to me. Probably they just polished it. After 1/2 year the scratches where again visible. My next car will be silver or avussilver!!!
