Automatic car washes are terrible for the paint, and just grind dirt into the clear coat. It might be a lease, but you still want it to look good for those 3 years, and swirls dull the paint.
Put a ceramic coating on it and it'll be much easier to wash it come winter time.

I believe they are probably worse for the paint and harder on whatever wax you might have on the car. If I had the time to invest I'd do it all by hand. On a leased car, the $2-3k cost for a ceramic coating is harder to swallow. In the end though I just place a higher priority of the car looking good by it always being clean. My snow/dirt/salty Jeep looks horrible in the winter. Enter my monthly wash package.
