Hi my name is Christopher and I live in CT. I'm joining this forum as I've had great successes in forums before. I'm here because my wife bought a 2020 NX 300 base in Atomic Sliver with Navi, premium package and a bunch of other little add ons. We bought the car as a off service loaner vehicle from Hoffman Lexus. We were cross shopping the XC40 and Q5. We traded in a 2014 Avalon towards the car and got a great deal from the dealership.
I'm here to learn the vehicle and any issues or problems and be able to find fixes for her vehicle.
I do own a daily but my other vehicle is below. I've put way too much time and money in that one than makes sense. From a couple of years ago.
One thing you might want to address.....I notice you either lost or took your wheel center-caps off. I'd replace them ASAP......otherwise, rust and corrosion can get started around the wheel hub.covers.

He very clearly has shiny black center caps with the STI logo on them in red.

OK.....hard to tell from that angle. Looked to me like typical missing center-caps. I see it every day on various different vehicles.
Anyhow, I did a search, and you apparently are correct. that seems to be the way Subaru designs them....the red center-piece looks like a small hub-cover from a distance.

Thanks everyone.. Yes that is Subaru STI hatchback (there is a serious discussion that it isn't a wagon vs is ) Yes those are black hubcaps. came with the car. Lots of engine work on that car. with turbo subaru's you can basically do whatever you want , there is a lot of aftermarket support.
Mine is a built engine with larger turbo, etc, and of e85 flexfuel compatibility.
I bought the car new. It will only have 1 owner until i die.
now i want to know if it's a hatchback or wagon...i'm leaning towards hatchback myself, but to me for a car to be wagon it must have a sedan equivalent which the impreza does too! gah! not to compare this car to a golf but the golf is a hatchback, with 4 doors and no sedan equivalent, and the jetta has a wagon variant...so yea this is technically a wagon. case closed!

There is a sub forum for the NX you may want to peruse there for all information related to the model. There's also an introduction thread there for new members like yourself.
