Roadster drive through car wash
looks good.. but having lots of "cloths" means nothing about adding swirls.
1000 Dirty, inferior "cloths", dirty water, not properly lubricated, too much pressure, lack of knowledge will add swirls.
Not trying to bust your bubble though

Have you thought about adding an inline ionizer/filter to your hose to prevent the problems you're having with your water? Also, use a leaf blower (electric, not gas as you'd be blowing smoke/fumes all over your nice clean car) to dry it and to get water out of the mirrors, grill and plates and all of the places that normal drying just doesn't get to.

Somebody beat me to it, but check out Optimum No Rinse Wash and Wax. I love it. Use it as directed for washing, and I dilute it in a different ratio to use as a spray detailer. Very versatile, affordable, and effective.
The local car wash "Spa" place here offers hand washing and they have a plethora of cloths etc to ensure they don't add swirls.
I just had a hand wash and then clay bar, buff etc and the car looks amazing.
Hand wash is only $35... I think a couple of them and a couple of bucket washing at home will work for me.
Here she is after the wash yesterday.... drool!!!

They're off a 370z... Stock rims with spacers for stance.
The car is currently for sale. Just lowered the price in the Marketplace.
Circumstances force a quick sale (it's on eBay too).
Buy the car and you'll get the rims! :-)
