I've been using Meguairs Ultimate each time I wash the car. I've been thinking of using some of the "black car" polishes but have no experience. The front bumper cover does have chips from previous owner. I tend to stay off the freeway. There are just too many much more enjoyable routes around here!

Holy crap!!! I went to Menzerna's site. I can see how that would make you an expert. My Head nearly exploded!
Go onto YouTube and check out all of Larry's videos. He's a pro that drives a black 964 now. I wish there was a YouTube when I had a black car... would have saved me months of trial and error. Once you get your tools (Orbital buffer) and polishing products, remember less product is good, too much product will not buff out and allow for the swirls to come out.

The photo you posted of your car looked like the Sun was reflecting swirls, in the video below you'll see Larry uses the Brinkman light to inspect for the same.
