Does anyone have pictures of both SWP and CS together from any and all angles? I'm leaning towards SWP currently. However I want to hear your opinion on either color (good or bad). I'm still wondering which of these 2 colors work with the cars design the best. I guess another question would be which of these look the lost aggressive at all times.

Here are my thoughts for now:
SWP
Looks great especially in the sun
Works great with gloss black parts
Can get dirty quicker
May or may not look boring during some lighting conditions
It won't change colors much or drastically as CS

CS
Unique color
Reminds me of nardo grey
I love how it looks when the sun shines on it (flat grey color)
Sometimes (in pictures) it reminds me of a faint silver as I see grey and silver as sorta similar for some reason...I'm not a fan of silver as it's rather bland
Dirt will be less visible
Still questioning if I like the deeper grey color which shows up when the sky's darker
 
Give them both a miss and get Hichroma Red. Live on the edge. :p
 
CS... Like everyone I get comments about how awesome it looks but the number one comment is the color. I've been to shows where there has been myself (CS) and white and red. I will get more people around my car commenting on the car and the color.

Prefer Ceramic grey if I had to make a choice.
 
I’d go Ceramic Grey with Red Interior, great combination.
Both are light colours so I won’t show dirt as much as darker colours.
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
Silky silver is the only color that makes the stinger punch above it’s weight.
 
Classic VS Fashion ....................SWP for the wine ! :thumbup:
 
I don't come out to left field often, for good reason:sleep:. But before I go back to the dugout I'll leave this, drop the bland and go explosive with Atomic (bomb) Blue.:thumbup:

some people need the extra help .......................bawaaaaa:laugh::laugh:
 
Photos don't do (clean) snow white pearl justice, it looks great in person.

That said, I like my ceramic silver better just for the rarity, white cars are everywhere. To be fair, so are silver cars, but CS is different.
It does hide dirt better than white, but definitely looks best when clean.
White does look amazing with black wheels and a wrapped roof.

If this had been posted and seen by me yesterday morning, I'd have deliberately shot all angles pics of both; because I went to the dealer and looked over their outside stock. They had three Ceramic Silver in a row, and a bunch of White Pearl as well. I can only say this: I didn't see the White Stingers unless I looked directly at them. But those three Ceramic Silver Stingers lined up edge to edge pulled my attention over there. If I were to buy a Stinger right now, and the only two choices I had were White Pearl or Ceramic Silver, I'd gravitate toward the CS; but the color would not be a deal breaker: I'd be looking at everything else and pick the vehicle that checked all the boxes, regardless of color.
 
I always get compliments on the color (Ceramic Silver). Here’s some comparisons in pictures and a video of each color.

The best thing about Snow White Pearl is its ability to hide paint touch ups when using Dr Colorchip. We have a Seltos in that color and when I touch up small rock chips, they practically disappear, unless you find them and focus your eyes directly on it, if you can find it again first. Cant say that that’s possible on my Silky silver GT.

I just did some touch up last weekend in my ceramic silver with the kia color pen and it worked great. The newest rock chip was right above the front emblem and it finally motivated me to change out the front badge, I’ve been putting it off for months...

Go to the dealer and see it in person. That’s what took me to make the decision on white despite having driven a white car for the previous 12 years. I liked the blue, but too much black in the interior. Almost was able to go for a red on red, but the white with red pulled me in like a tractor beam

Yeah this isn't just any silver car but it just makes me think of silver for some reason. In the bright sun it comes close to being white though

I wish the dealers around me had both colors. There's one with ceramic but ko white

Currently car is blue and it's given me a bad experience. My current car after 2 years rattles like nothing else, also been in 2 accidents with it which is why I'm blaming the color haha. I more about lighter colors though.
