What other colour?

I wanted Ceramic Grey or Snow White with a red interior but, ended up with Aurora Black with a black interior. Love it, learned a lot about paint care and all the different products out there just to keep it clean. I think it’s the most rewarding when it’s clean;)
 
I walked in ready to buy black (my 3rd black car).... and saw how filthy / scratched up all the black cars on The lot were. Saw a couple hichroma reds. In the sun. The color flop. Sold right then. Beautiful. My second would have been the panthera but it wasn’t available in the 2018 MY.
 
If the deep chroma blue had been available in Canada, it would have made a good run for my top spot - but I also wanted the red Nappa interior, which was limited here (I think) to three paint colours only.

I took a good look at the lighter shade of blue available here (Atomic Blue), but it was a little too light/bright for my liking. I mentioned that to the salesman, and he pointed out a car with the white pearl on their lot - and as soon as I saw it I knew that colour was the one for me. The pearl effect gives it an understated but elegant look, and contrasts beautifully with the black highlights on the body. Lesson learned - the colours you see via pictures or on the Kia website are a good guide, but nothing like seeing the cars in person and under different lighting.

I actually went back to the dealer three times over a two day period, so I could see the white pearl paint under bright sun, overcast, and artificial light (at night). Couldn't be happier with my choice, and being able to get it with the red Nappa interior was just icing on the cake. :thumbup:

P.S. Already have a black roadster - love the look on that as well, but one black car is enough ... :p

Love my red, but the car looks good in any color. I am generally not a fan of white cars, but for some reason the GT line - the styling and trim of the car, whatever it is - I think the Stinger looks fantastic in white. Sporty and classy at the same time.
 
My HiChroma Red really pops in the sun and I love it. But when I trade it in for my 2022 V8TT it’ll be for a SWP.

I was shopping around for the Snow White Pearl with red interior and was told there were none available. I kept checking for months and the dealers kept telling me it would be very difficult to find and tried to get me in one with black interior. I wasnt in a rush. For that price, if I wasnt going to get exactly what I wanted, I wasn't going to make a purchase. I waited until there WAS one, and bought it. No regrets.

I was also fond of the red at the time, but couldnt see myself owning one. The silky silver would have to be my second option now that I have been impressed by the one owned by Stinger GT SS...it's really stylish I think (but I LOVE mine more) ;)
 
Poll update latest: Ceramic grey is holding a slender lead over Snow white pearl as the second preferred choice colour.

Look at that four-way battle (tied at six a piece) for a distant podium (third place)! :D

Wanted ceramic/red from the start. My second choice was white/red

I have 3 black vehicles in the garage and did not need another relationship with black paint.

Red/Yellow was a no go for my driving habits, no need for extra attention.

A cop's radar doesn't know or care what color your car is. Neither does the cop. The "bright color" thing is a MYTH.

Possible, but when my wife had her red Audi with tint she got pulled over a lot for the tint. Black car not so much....
