Welcome back. I was surprised when you sold your Pro and went with an Outback. As for the fine scratches that show on the dark colors, take it to a good detail place to see if they can rub it out. My black Pro was washed by the dealership and had so many fine swirls I had to take it to a Ceramic Pro dealer to have a paint correction and coating applied afterwards.
I was able to get back $500 from the dealership as I was able to prove that their cheap wash crews ruined the paint.
The newer paints and clear coats are not great and are soft. Over three years with the ceramic coating and it comes out better than new after each wash.
The dark blue is a nice color when clean, but I think dark blue metallics show dirt and scratches worse than black. IMO.
Going for a suspension mod soon? Good luck with your new T4R and welcome back to the forum.
