Welcome, John! I have bad news for you... there is no cure for your affliction... I suffer from it too... although maybe not as badly as you since white is a little easier to keep clean and shiny than black is!
I must admit that sometimes I avoid taking my car out for a drive because it's clean and shiny and won't stay that way! How dumb is that?!! Then I remind myself how much fun it is to drive... and that I'll get to clean and wax it again when I get home.
Yes, it is an obsession... or maybe a disease... affecting normal behavior and judgement.
Enjoy your new car and let your wife laugh!
