Micro Blue Carbon Edition

[DCBStingerGT]

Originally posted on facebook group by a member, thought some would like to see photos of this Aussie Micro Blue Stinger with Carbon Fibre hood vents, side mirror caps and front grill surround, also Alcantara steering wheel, and Limited Edition badging from what I have read.

As you can see on the cover to the wireless charging pad, there is a badge with Stinger and possibly a limited edition number.

Personally not a fan of the Alcantara steering wheel.

Very nice. Like our steering wheel better too. Hope Flame doesn't see this.

Too late ! I prefer our steering wheel, don't particularly like the Alcantara look. Don't mind the cf parts but they should have done cf around the bottom grille too instead of leaving it chrome. Doesn't look blended because of that imo.

Not sure how long the wheel would hold up for..

Visited my local Kia dealership late this afternoon, and was told they will not bring in a Neon Orange Stinger unless it's ordered by a customer, they told me it could be difficult to sell otherwise.

There are a few in dealers I have seen on the Eastern suburbs. Which dealers did you see??
I'm hoping to bag an Orange one shortly & would prefer one in stock so I have some bargaining power.

Ok, my local dealer is Essendon Kia.

Suggest you check out each dealers web site and do a stock search. They don't all appear on Carsales from what I have found. Make sure you save one for me though!

I have already owned a Deep Chroma Blue Stinger GT for 18 months, just interested in seeing a Neon Orange Stinger in person, that's all.

At first I thought the orange was a bit loud, but after a while, it has grown on me. So much so, that Orange is my first choice!
Yet to see one on the road.

Fed Orange is my first choice too. The dealer said, "Hey, lease from us and repaint it whatever color you want." I have not pursued a color change, because the Silky Silver satisfies. But Orange is very cool looking.

Kia calls it Neon Orange here in AU. I assume it’s the same color as your Federation Orange?

"We" assume so.

Retrofitting the mirrors would be worth the $$$ to save the current cleaning hassles

I've owned many...many Ducatis over the years and carbon fibre is one of the big "go to" mods for them. I'm a big fan, but oddly I'm not sure I like it on a car...weird the way a mind works...

Sorry to disagree I'm a big Alcantara fan. My steering wheel is of near equal material , it's so damn comfortable on the fingers and hands. I couldn't go back to a hard surface.

Details are on the Kia website - and, like @Flameangel, I much prefer the leather bound steering wheel over the alcantara.

"Carbon fiber hood garnish", that's funny. Never heard of our fake hood vents as "garnish" before.
