Silky Silver Discussion

Subtle! I like it. And the "Stinger" in the front is unique, where the licence plate is "supposed" to go. That's sort of in your face to any cop who wants to write you up! Play nicely, under the radar!

Cops can try but here in NC no front plate is required. Thus the opening for me to get that fake Swedish plate with MOV OVR on it.

Just found out today that KIA discontinued the Silky Silver for all 2019 GT trims in the US. It is only offered on the 4 cylinder engines now. Guess they sold so many ceramic silvers they decided that's what the people want. Not trying to hate on ceramic silver but after seeing it on the showroom floor and in direct sunlight, I couldn't do it. It's like it wants to be as cool as white but has a silky side

@shaggystinger That just turned our Silky Silver into a rare GT color. I don't mind that at all.

Agree Merlin!

 

[bumble bee]

Wonder why though? So I just called KIA about that silver GT. So we shall see.

@SoCal.Stinger ... looking good!

 

[MerlintheMad]

@SoCal.Stinger Are you going to offer any of those for the 2020 calendar?

I've been so MIA from the forums, I did not know there was a calendar.... but I'd be more than willing to offer up some pics.. especially since Silky's are hard to come by since the discontinuation of the color.

@SoCal.Stinger ... looking good!

Thank you sir!

SICK A$$ Shot... has that creepy stuck in the middle of middle America vibe... fitting since it's in Halloween season!

Where’s all the Silky Silver owners, no posts since October 2019 so I’ll kick start this thread, show us what you’ve got.

 

[shaggystinger]

It has been a while!

 

[MerlintheMad]

Oh why not; nothing more interesting going on right now (hah!)
One from each of the last four seasons.

I just bought a 2021 Stinger GT in “ghost Grey“ (Canada) ... is that the same as silky silver?

 

[MerlintheMad]

Nope, but they are the closest to being the same. Silky Silver is currently a discontinued color, as far as I know.

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks! Happy to be a Stinger owner. I’ve had the car just over a week, and am amazed at the head turning effect it has on people walking past it in the driveway! After more reading, I realize ‘ceramic silver’ is most likely the US equivalent to our ghost Grey. I was on the fence about the colour, originally I wanted the darker Thunder Grey, but my dealership couldn’t locate one in the area so I took the ghost Grey on their lot - very happy now that I did

Welcome to the hive - Ghost Grey AKA Ceramic Silver is a better colour than Thunder Grey IMHO
