    I purchased my Stinger at Kia of Laurel in Laurel, MD. I replaced a 2009 Audi A5 S-Line with it. My A5 was manual, so unfortunately I'm missing it every day... But glad I got the Stinger GT! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Love my Stinger GT2 but have concerns about the car when on twisty back mountin roads

    I came from a 2009 A5 and this is definitely a departure from that car. The A5 exhibited better corner handling, but the Stinger definitely outclasses it in every other GT category. I haven't had much opportunity to take it on the Twisties yet. Kind of lacking in that in my area... Sent from...

    Love my Stinger GT2 but have concerns about the car when on twisty back mountin roads

    I've read a lot of reviews about the GT before purchase, the handling of the Stinger was one of the main negative points addressed by the articles. Seems all the things you've mentioned are inherent to the factory tuning. Seems like the car was designed for Superior highway driving and power...

    I'm not sure where that is! I'm out in Annapolis. Feel free to reach out anytime you're in the neighborhood! I'd love to sit down and chat about it! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Stinger reliability

    I just checked tirerack yesterday and the Sport 4s seem to have ballooned in price. I guess it's because spring is coming and demand is increasing. Since I live in MD, I'll have to get a second set of winter wheels/tires, this will allow me to buy new tires on the off season so they're cheaper...

    Stinger reliability

    That's a relief. The only two things that I can see such will cost me a ton so far are the performance tires and brakes. 1170 for a set of staggered Pilot Sport 4s. Yikes. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

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

    This is absolutely my first Kia. Most likely the only one I'll buy. It's been great and I like it. My goal car is to end up in an S5 Sportback. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Stinger reliability

    Hmm, similar in price to Audi parts, or are we still below that price point? (Coming from an Audi A5) Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Stinger reliability

    Does anyone know if there is a premium price for parts on the stinger or how much the services are going to cost? Is the 15k and 30k mile services cost the same as the other Kia's? Service department didn't exactly answer my questions to my satisfaction. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    The color is definitely growing on me! Unfortunately, a lot of people have already given their unsolicited opinions about how ugly they think it is! Screw then, they're just jealous! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Looking for a good Lease deal

    Update, ended up leasing a Sunset Yellow GT for about 30 bucks more a month than the premium RWD. I made out pretty well, I think. Not a HUGE fan of yellow, but it's been growing on me! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Stinger reliability

    What has owner's experience been with the Stinger as far as reliability goes? How are the first 6 months stacking up for folks? The 2.0T? The 3.3T? Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Looking for a good Lease deal

    Looking to possibly getting into a lease. Anyone in the MD area work with they local dealerships? Best case scenario, would like to lease a base GT, but will settle for a 2.0t if the GT is too much. Trying to be in the mid-300's. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
