The next-gen Stinger (if there is one). If not, then probably the latest Tesla model.

I absolutely love the stock-wheels on the GTs. Gonna do my best not to curb them like I did my Optima's! LOL! :)

Wife is considering one as she has been wanting an SUV For awhile now. But I wouldn't trade my Stinger for one - two totally different animals, and I am quite content with my sedan. :) They're definitely nice, though.

Congrats and welcome! :)

I've seen mostly parked Stingers so far. I did recently see someone in my area with a new Ceramic Silver one drive right by me. I waved like a madman, and the lady driving it probably thought I was some sort of psycho. I was just so stoked to see another one in the wild. :)

Orange-only? Pass. The rest sounds nice, though!

All fine and well if you can actually stomach the G70's appearance. For me, that grill will always be an enormous turn-off to the appearance. I would never pay that kind of money for a car that I consider unattractive. Everyone has different priorities. This author wants to feel 'confident and...

If you're gonna have to make a road trip, might as well do it in style like you did. :) Ultimately, after almost a month with the car, I FULLY feel it was WORTH THE COST - including the tax! :) Just took the JD Power survey yesterday, too. Not a single issue yet - I hope you're having great...

45K I think for a 19 GT2 is about the best price I've seen so far, but of course I could be wrong. Pre-congrats, if you decide to go with it! :) -Tim

Hey Triumph, I know what you mean - I've bought two Kias from a Kia dealership in my life - one was a TERRIBLE experience, the other was pretty good. It really seems hit and miss. Do you live in an area where you can shop other Kia dealers?

Just curious - do you by chance mean Grossinger Kia, Lincolnwood?

The Stinger's better looks are, in my opinion, well worth whatever price difference there might be by adding AWD to it. ($1500-$2500 probably?). Just my preference, tho. Some people will obviously think vice-versa. :)

Thanks Mark! :) It's a 2018 GT2 AWD w/19s and summer tires. Thankfully my commute is very short and with AWD, I -hope- I'll be ok for the fairly mild winters here. If things get dicey, I'm just a few blocks from Costco and will switch over to some all-seasons for the winter. Blue was my first...

When does the typical car have a 'second generation'? Isn't that around the 4 year mark, give or take? Stinger's been out for less than a year, I think? A little premature to start digging a grave already, in my opinion. -Tim

Gamer, here. PC Gaming, boardgames, miniatures games, RPGs... started when I was like 9, and never gave it up. :) -Tim
