I was going over my gunmetal gray 2011 Z yesterday, and found what seems to me to be a lot of chips and scratches that were not there a month ago. My other (past) cars never showed this much paint damage. So I wonder if the paint--or maybe just this color?--is more readily damaged than others.

Needless to say, I plan on having the car detailed and coated, after I get the touch up paint I ordered. Suggestions for coating?
Very soft! My new Z is only a month old and I already have a few rock chips. My car is Red and the chips are white. I orderded Dr. Colorchip and it works well.
