'09 Accent Stripe and New Wheels

[wtxhl]

My local dealer just received another 09 Ruby Red Sky. This one is a non-turbo but it has the "41ABlack Accent Stripe" on it and the new Q9Y wheels. Before this car came in no one could tell me what the accent stripe or new wheels looked like. The new wheels are a real nice 10 spoke design and I like them better than the 5 spoke wheels. If the ordering guide had had a picture of them I would have ordered them with my car. I'm not going to change my order now though because I don't want to fall any further down the build list. The accent stripe runs the length of the car down the center. It starts just above the front bumper and runs to just below the third brake light in the back. It is about six inches wide at first and then spreads out to about 12 inches at the base of the winshield. It is outlined with a smaller stripe about 1/8 of an inch wide. It has a satin finish to it, so it doesn't stand out, especially since the red is so dark. It looks good, but it is a matter of personal taste.

It would seem that the car you are talking about is the "Ruby Red Special Edition".

The Q9Y wheels are only available as part of that package, you can't order them on any other configuration. The same is true with the 41A accent stripe.

Don't bother trying to change your order (unless you are going for a special edition), as you won't able to get those wheels anyway.

Now, perhaps you can order those wheels separately through the parts department...they'll have to have replacements available at some point I would think.

Unfortunately my cell phone isn't camera-equipped, and I didn't have my camera with me (I didn't know they would have this car on the lot when I went there). Maybe I could go back with a camera...
