Welcome to the 200 fun! Super vehicles. If you notice a bit of rough shifting in the 1-2 gears up or down, the dealer can apply a firmware update for a fix. It's not a recall, so you may have to pay an hour labor. It may have already been applied to your new ride.

Is this only for 2016?
 
Beautiful color and what looks like a set of KO2s. How does it ride on those??
 
No, '16 and some '17. It applied to my '17 (purchased in '16) and made a noticeable difference in low end shifts.

I will have them check. Its hard to tell on shifting plus if dealership will do it i dont know if they really do it or not since its software.

Does that only happen if you are hard on the pedal? Or at all times? I've noticed mine shifts hard if I step on it but it doesn't shift hard all the time.
 
Stock 285s.

285/60/18 load range D?

if so, then congrats we have same tire. Rare to find another with stock size KO2.

I personally love them. Good ride. Quiet. Fuel economy not horrible.

Looking really good!!

Did you put the towel under the car seat? Doesn’t look it was designed for it...even though it may feel tight when you push/pull.......

I used diono seat protectors, they work well and don't let the diono car seats make indentations.
 
Sweet I allways liked the Blue .... Good luck with it should last till your kid is out of College and longer

Thanks! It took a little while to find this. I almost picked up one from florida with rust underneath and 1 from portland. Do they have a production numbers for different colors?
 
Im just curious, does 200 still have the vin tags on the each replaceable parts like fenders, doors,hood, trunk? Im trying to look on mine

I almost never accelerate fast, so for mine, the abrupt 1-2 and 2-1 shifts were very noticeable under easy driving.
