    Should I get a second car?

    I'm thinking it may be best to use the money to pay bills. The inconvenience of having to park a second car that my HOA will throw a fit over may be too much. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Sunset Yellow Kia Stinger Repaint Process

    Lucky, my dealer sent me to Next car for a rental... They gave me a rusted and dented Camry with stained cloth seats. Kind of miffed by that. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Sunset Yellow Kia Stinger Repaint Process

    Haven't seen my sunset yellow in two in and half weeks and dealer won't return my messages or tell me where it's being repainted... Starting to get really concerned since this looks like a major job. I hope they get the whole body of the car, but I'd look to be involved in the process. I don't...

    Should I get a second car?

    Are older Gs and Nissan's with manuals reliable above 150k miles? My biggest concern is finding one in the right price range so I can daily commute it. I expect to put on close to 20k a year on it. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Should I get a second car?

    I'm definitely leaning towards the Accord. What about the Altima See? Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Should I get a second car?

    I need something reliable. I'm not opposed to getting a hatchback, love hatchbacks, actually. I need something reliable with high mileage because that's really all I can find that's 5k dollars or less. Working on a shoe string budget. Modifications are not a viable option for me.

    Should I get a second car?

    So, I figured I'd reach out to this community to catch everyone's opinion on a good course of action... While my Stinger GT is getting painted, I've been thinking about getting a second car for commuting. I currently drive over 30k miles a year and my Stinger is in a 10k a year lease. You guys...

    Who's received their free Harman Kardon Soho headphones?

    Received mine last week. Absolutely wasn't expecting this. Good on Kia! They keep building good will. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Who's experienced more than normal paint chips? Share your pictures

    Several thousands. Ill share a final figure when I actually get it... I'm apprehensive of the process based on something my service tech told me. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Who's experienced more than normal paint chips? Share your pictures

    This is tricky. If you have a sunset yellow Stinger, Kia has begun a campaign to either buy back the cars or fix the paint. If you choose to have your car re-painted, they'll give you a cash check for compensation. I chose to take the money and keep the car. My plan is to use the money to buy a...

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    It definitely comes for to personal taste. For me, the sportback grew on me and I've seen what it looks like with black optics package, I'm hoping they bring that to the states. I prefer the sharp lines and creases on the S5, I like the more contemporary look. I also love the way the stinger...

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    The sportback is physically smaller than the stinger... I believe the stinger is closer in size to the A7. Also, the performance of the S5 is all too real. A definite must drive. I am 6'5" and the stinger is slightly tight for me. Definitely a huge distance just for me to sit in. I love the...

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    It's very true... If you have deep enough pockets, Audi's are some of the best cars to own. My car drove and handled beautifully, but there were so many things I had not considered cost wise. That is of course, my fault. I hope to one day in an S5 sportback, but first I'm saving money and...

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    Sweet, that's an awesome looking car. Mine was Monza silver as well. Honestly, it was my favorite car, but by 140k miles, I was replacing major components such as control arms and bent wheels. It was getting pricey... Timing chain was going to come due soon as well. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL...

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    My A5 was an 09 with the 3.2 and manual, S-Line. There were no issues with the car besides replacing consumables. It was high mileage and needed an incredible amount of maintenance. Great, reliable car otherwise. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    How many people have received a thumbs up from other drivers on the road?

    I've been snubbed just about every time I've seen another driver in Maryland... Saw a black GT2 and I waved, guy ignored the hell out of me. He and I ended up parking near each other in the theater parking lot... No love here in MD. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    Audi isn't what I would consider "entry level" luxury. They are very much a tier 1 luxury brand, because of that you will pay alot for it. I loved my Audi A5, but by 100k+miles, it was costing me 4 to 6k a year just to maintain. A lot of usage of aluminum parts. Just be away of that before you...

    Official Sunset Yellow Kia Stinger Pictures Thread

    I got a different message from Kia. They said I would get three options, a repaint, an exchange for another color, or bought out completely. I'm thinking about going with the third option... You paid 3k over sticker? I got my "limited edition" for about 1k below invoice. Ended up paying about...
