Any paint with a hardner will be more scratch resistant, the hardner chemically cures the paint instead of just evaporatingt the solvents out. With that said some types of paints are also harder, urethanes are harder than synthetic or acrylic enamel and polyurethanes are harder yet but very toxic to spray without proper protection. I would use an economy line single stage urethane if I were you. Most paint companies have an economy line of paint that is good paint just not the best. PPG has Omni and I think a gallon of red Omni with reducers and hardner is around $140 and should be plenty for an M. If you want it to really shine you can add clear mixed 1:1 in the final couple of coats and it will also help to keep it from fading but with the urethanes it will be many years before it will fade.
