Default Claybar brand new car?

Would/Has anyone claybared a brand new car from the dealer? I'm getting my Black IS350 in a week or so and am wondering to expect. Do the cars come waxed? How long is that new car shine good for (I'm guessing a couple months at best)? This is my first black car so I have questions... my previous car was a GGP IS300 and somewhat easier to keep clean.

BTW, I've pretty much decided I'll give Shining Monkey a try first based on what I've read here. Anyone have recent bad experiences with this product?
