I don't know who would say that a new car doesn't need to be waxed. That's just crazy. Claying is also essential if you're going to get your wax to lay down properly. Polishing though? Seems a bit much. I suppose there might be some dealer installed swirl marks if you let them wash your car before you pick it up. In that case you may want to have it polished. I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself though. Paint correction is a skill that takes a very long time to learn. And I doubt you want to practice on your new car.
