Received delivery about 3 weeks ago on my wife's 23 Venue, Black over Shimmering Silver in the Preferred trim. Added a set of 17" Motegi MR115 wheels(really didnt like the way the 15" alloys looked), a block heater, and have a Redline Tuning hood lift kit on order. So far its a solid little car, cant wait to put some miles on it this summer! Looking forward to hearing everyone else's experience with this car as well.

Beautiful little rig. You will like it. Are you going to put snow tires on the 15" wheels for the harshest months of winter?

Black rims always look great on small cars. My family got its first small car (and first FWD car) in 1986. It was a 1979 Plymouth Champ (same as Dodge Colt, Mitsubishi made). It was tan, and my dad painted the silver rims black with a chrome beauty ring around them. Sure looked sharp. It had a factory black stripe below the windows running along from the C pillar to the A pillar which looked nice with the black rims.

The black on your Venue serves same purpose. But wow my dad was pleased with how that light little FWD car did in the snow.

Yeah, I’ve got winter rubber to put on the OE alloys come October.
Lol those Colts back in the day were awesome.
