It was a very busy, rainy 2 days with lots of driving and no chance to wash it. So it ended up looking like this!

In response to g.smiley and lee7758, the car is the standard height as per German specs. I didn't choose the Performance pack which would give a more lower ride height and stiffer springs. I find the height to be just right, though adjustable suspension would be even better for sharp ramps or speed bumps.
I felt so bad driving it when it looked so dirty. It was a mentally cleansing experience to clean and polish her afterwards. I don't usually refer to this car as 'her' because 'she' is quite brutally fast and looks quite mean!! :-) Hence more male??

It's not lowered? Perhaps it's the angle off the photos, but it sure looks nice and low. It's magnificent before and after. I like mine dirty sometimes

Thanks!!!!
I also debated whether 'he' is a really a 'he'. Could be alien, so would that make 'him' an 'it'?
or maybe just an extreme 'HE'?.....the type who can force their beard to grow by mental might alone? 
I used Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax Polish. I've used Zymol with my past cars and while I found the Zymol wax to last longer, the NXT shine looks slightly deeper and glossier in my eyes. The main problem with the Zymol was it took a long time to go through the 2 stage process while the NXT just needs a quick and easy application and then removal/hand-buffing and you get a real deep shine, easy.
However, I've now also bought the Meguiars Deep Crystal 3-step polishing system to test out, when I have the time. I just like trying out different waxes to see what they do.
Overall, It is advisable to remove all contaminants from the paint with a wax cleaner product in order to achieve a 'perfect shine'. Due to time restraints, I'll probably use NXT most of the time and use either the Zymol or Deep Crystal multi-step processes every once in a while.
