How Soon For Wax?

I picked up my new Z two weeks ago today. The salesman, who really didn't know much, said I should wait for a while before I wax the car. I asked, didn't they wax it when they prepped it for delivery (they said wash'wax for delivery). He said it was't genuine wax and I should wait. I later called the body shop directly. They said since the car was built in June of '09, the paint should be sufficiently cured to put a coat of wax on for protection from winter elements. Who is right here? Also, when the sun shined in a certain way, I saw some light "swirlees" on the left door. The car has hardly been out of my garage, is still clean from delivery hasn't been washed here yet, so the "swirlees" were from the dealer. How can I get these out? My car is Solid Red.
