Sorry, had to make it clear I was female as I recently joined another Stinger forum and the guys were not aware I was female and I had to pull them up after the conversation got a little too "boys will be boys".

Soooo...... I bought a new Stinger GT 3.3L in pearl white with red nappa leather. Am picking her up in 2 days and can't wait! Have been doing months of research on this car and finally decided to jump in and do it. She will be replacing my 2014 Jeep Cherokee longitude (don't ask...... Lol) and will share the garage with my much treasured treasured Yamaha R6.

You'll be very happy with the fit and finish on the Stinger as compared to the Jeep. Mine was a 2011 and it was falling apart.[biggrin]

My Jeep had problems from the first week and there was zero after sales service from them. In the 4 years I had the car I tried contacting jeep 13 times more.... Not one reply. So I'm done with them. I hope Kia won't be the same as I am anyway aware of paint chipping issues and side bolster wearing with other owners so I hope they deal with any issues if they occur. I'm glad you're happy with your stinger. I'm so excited to get mine.

I'm having problems with both the tapatalk app and the website here. I try replying to each person separately but it only comes up as a new entry, not a reply. It's bugging me. I've deleted the app twice already because it was glitchy. Any suggestions?

Sorry to hear that, my dealer at least tried to fix the problems when it was under warranty. After that expired I figured it was a good time to get something else.
