Wax on the 3rd or 4th week
Professional Detail every other month
Done this on every car I have ever owned.

Full wash, wax, buff, and clean out interior every other week. Obsidian with ecru is a PITA to keep clean so I stay up on it

During the winter months... I don't
Summer - probably every 2 weeks, and in-between washes I spray detail the car every few days

2011 IS350C - my wife's car...generally every 10 days. She doesn't like going to the carwash. I drive an old farts car - 2009 Benz E350 and it's 2x's a week or more if it rains. We are on a monthly unlimited wash program for $85. Here's what it includes:
Hand wash with Wax (just a liquid wax in water)
Vacuum interior/use detail brush to dust dash and console areas
Clean windows, edges of windows and all mirrors
Chamois dry
Silicone tires with Tireshine™ wheel dressing
I hand wax both cars every 3-4 months.

Whenever she starts to look dirty
So that would be once a week, with 2-3 waxes a year.
