Sorry link was messed up ...
The point about this stuff is you never have to wax your car ever again.
They make a pretty valid point about wax. It gets softer in hot weather and thats when small dust particles stick to it ... when wax cools again the dust is trapped and when you next wax your car this dust acts like sandpaper and thats what gives you those dreaded swirl marks.
Couple of long term tests in Evo Magazine on a 550 Ferrari has had great results so far ... treatment here in UK is around £150 for a new car. Job takes ~6 hours, mostly curing time for the polymer.
I will have it done and give some feedback ... when I get my car in Jan.

Like others have pointed out, it is just an expensive sealant. I almost got suckered into it when buying my E63 at the dealer. If you read the fine print, it says that it has to be re-applied every 3 months professionally to maintain warranty. Also, some have complained that it changes the color slightly.

Skip that. Look into Menzerna line of products. They have a FMJ (Full Metal Jacket) that is a synthetic wax. Lasts 6 months and has great reflection properties.
