"Touch of Class", New car Ext/Int Treatment a Gimmick from Dealerships?

I have been told by a body shop that the ext treatment is a joke and a waste of money. We bought a 2000 car and had it done and over the weekend bought a new car and plan to have it done...only because I was able to get the price way down and have the leather int treated as well. The 2000 car is still in really outstanding condition which is why I ask.
So - worth the money/effort?

Bob,

You don't need the "mop-n-glo"
Pass on it.

I don't know about those, but Glosshaus is real, I've direct experience with it.

Having worked in new car sales at one time, I can tell you that those products exist solely for the purpose of enhancing the dealership's profit margin. 3M Scotchguard is a legitimate product, but you can buy it yourself if you need the extra protection for the interior.

The reason that your 2000 model looks great is probably because you take really good care of your cars, nothing else.

Were you thinking of financing here?
You aware of this GMAC plan? It's super.
