Beautiful. I want.
So what is this ceramic coating? You apply it yourself? Is it protective?

It's a protective, water repellent, and dust/dirt resistant layer on top of your paint. I believe it actually bonds with the paint in the process. I think it usually lasts a year or 2 before you need to reapply.
You can buy it on Amazon and DIY or have a detailer do it for you.
I like it because of the shiny factor :)

Picked up a new to me 2015 S85D a couple weeks ago and have heard a lot about ceramic coating, so I thought I'd try it out myself. The shine, gloss, mirror-like finish is truly beautiful.
It did take me close to 4 hours start to finish including the initial washing/drying/cleaning.
4 hours! man you're a speed demon. Took me 8 on a brand new model 3. Even had an extra set of hands for the ceramic application.
Looks good!
