Haha, I think it's I, whom does not understand. They better be stock wheels, lol. I drove it right straight off the showroom floor, with only 8 miles on it and yes, it says Brembo. As for the engine photo, I will do that as soon as I can, after I am out of school. Teaching first, pictures later ya know, ha. Yeah, my trim is all brushed stainless on the side vents, door handles; I guess wherever there's trim. As for those wheels...my paperwork, when purchased, says all of the above. If not, my attorney husband will be making a visit to someone...

Thank you very much!!

 

[Mz B1ggz]

Oo! Pretty! I don't see the issue with the lighting. But then, I am not a professional photographer not by a long shot.

(edit: LOL! I only just now, because of your profile car pic, realized that I can have one too. So, now I have a pic of my car in my profile. I admit to being slow, but this was ridiculous. )

You have a very nice ride too!!

I came from a Silver looking Optima, for about 7 months on here before I got Sonic. I was all geared up in my mind to get a Snow White Pearl with red seats. Found out the red seats were hard to get at the time, test drove a Micro Blue ( did like it originally anyway ) and that was it, decided to get have some colour in my life

Do you still have the old window sticker that came with the car? If not, and if you're REALLY curious, go to this link:

and replace the last 17 digits with your VIN

I do not understand what I am to be curious for, lol. What am I looking for or trying to prove or not prove here? I guess I am really missing something...idk. I am nit really curious about anything, it's another person on here that is curious about the validity of my vehicle, for some reason, lol. I know it came straight off of a showroom floor, I was the first to drive it and I know what my sticker price was, including the list of what was on my vehicle. I am not vehicle savvy enough to catch onto what the deal is...really

I just checked the Kia Aust brochure, they are the wheels of the base model 2.0 (200) and 3.3 (330) , thought I'd just mention it. ( Not intending to prove anything). Tried to download brochure to large.

That's how the 2.0t Stingers look in the U.S.

There's nothing out of sorts with your car. It's looks as it should.

Here's a good pic showing some of the differences between 2.0t and 3.3tt Stingers.

I think that the confusion is that it isn’t clear what car she bought. Some of the posts made it sound like she thought her car is a V6 TT. I just would like clarification on what this car was sold as. From the pictures it is obviously a 2.0 car. I am just curious if it was sold that way.

Edit: I went back and found the post where she says it is a “premium” which indicates a 2.0 car. That clarifies it for me.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming. When are the 2020 models actually coming out?

I think you missed the drama on here a few months back: where a new member of the forum said that they had a GT (sold as such), and it turned out to be a 2.0L (a Premium also, iirc). It was an awkward "lol moment". (Again, iirc, it was a dealer "error" and they took the car back and replaced it with a GT trim; how the finances worked out on that I never learned; didn't need/want to know, either, for that matter.) We don't want to let anyone on here get shafted by a lousy dealer trick. And so the questions come to find out if your car is what you thought you were getting. It looks like you won't have to use your attorney husband's connections in this regard.

So got off the phone with a sales rep at a local dealer and they just received some 2020 info today. I was a little bummed, because there are no color changes for the new MY. I was really hoping that they were either bring the HC Blue here or would let me build a Panthera with red interior. They are going to get back with me hopefully tomorrow to go over any additional MY changes, but as of now, looks like I'll likely be trying to work a deal on a black with red interior.

 

[Waynerm002]

They should make the brown interior available as well. Make the red available on all colors. LOL.

Definitely keep us posted, excited to hear what the 2020 model year will bring.

More Stinger owners, if nothing else. That is a good thing. May sales gratify KIA enough for them to keep this up.
