Default A few STR questions - potential buyer
Hello,

I am considering purchasing a '05 STR and have a couple questions...

Are these Jaguar wheels or aftermarket?
Name: wheel.jpg Views: 60 Size: 39.8 KB

Also, are any of the body panels aluminum?

I will be doing some research here for other things I should look out for when purchasing these cars.

Thanks a lot.

Those are the stock beautiful and meaty-wide STR wheels. The 05-08 STR came with an aluminum hood. Beautiful and sexy beast...get it.

They're stock but they've been refinished...Stock is silver, those are darker gun metal...
