    Has anyone had a steering wheel leather issue and have you got it replaced?

    The second picture you could see the leather or whatever it is vegan etc is scaling which I think is from the heating element. The top photo shows discoloration and wear of the leather itself. I never hold my keys to the wheel while driving it nor do I use any kind of bleach wipes on it. I just...

    Has anyone had a steering wheel leather issue and have you got it replaced?

    Hey everyone, My 2018 stinger at first had seemed to worn a bit which didn't bother me the first 2 years but now it's as if the leather or vegan leather or whatever material it is has become slightly discolored on the left hand side and now due to the heated element is cracking. It looks like...

    Tints for 2018 base need your guys help

    I ended up not getting the tints and just the logos swapped for E on front, stinger script on back and rim e logos. The windows say they are factory 70% tinted so I like it and keeping it as is.

    Tints for 2018 base need your guys help

    Thanks! Yea I don't think they do come standard on base stingers. I think they might come on the Gt lines, at least the first gt lines. I think what's hard is that the base and premium stingers have a more elegant blend of sport and luxury vs the gt's that are raw sport, so it's hard to find...

    Tints for 2018 base need your guys help

    Hey everyone I have a black 2018 2.0 and having the logos swapped and windows tinted for it on tues. The base model didn't really come with tints and I would like it it to not be too dark and more like the stock GT line tints that Kia makes it standard with. What % tint do you think the gt line...

    Kia Stinger GT - 2018 Hagerty Hot List of Future Collector Cars

    Hey Listen. lol Maybe it was 5.5- 6 seconds, the point is the stinger 2.0 & v6 are both solid cars and the 4cyl is all one needs if they can afford a stinger. For someone who's not leasing a stinger and worry their sacrificing power they're not is my point. In the very few reviews of the 2.0...

    Kia Stinger GT - 2018 Hagerty Hot List of Future Collector Cars

    It's 100% true. Matter of fact focusing on the 2.0 would show just how good the gt's are. I own a 2.0 base awd and it's all anyone really needs and is well equipped. The 8 speed trans, with sport mode is all you really need. I merged from a stop 0-60 a few times on a highway and clocked 4-6...

    The 2019 Kia Stinger GT Atlantica Is the Most Exclusive Kia You Can Buy

    Either this is the good bye model OR the start of Kia offering special editions like Fiat Chrysler does for Dodge. Anyways it reminds me of a BMW Alpina edition: http://www.thedrive.com/new-cars/19101/the-2019-kia-stinger-gt-atlantica-is-the-most-exclusive-kia-you-can-buy...

    Kia Stinger may not get a second generation

    I think Atlantica is the good bye model. I figured that this was only going to be the one gen when it was obvious I was the only customer who paid cash for it new (2.0) at my local dealer for the whole year. They where like congrats you gamed the system lol. I saw on some car numbers websites...
