    What is everyone getting for MPG based on how they drive?

    Yup. I figured it would be terrible, and it is (GT2 AWD). I do mostly city driving and I average around 19MPG. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Who turns off the Auto Start/Stop feature when they first get in their Stinger?

    It?s unnoticeable to me in my 2018 too. I honestly wonder if the OP has something wrong with his car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Who turns off the Auto Start/Stop feature when they first get in their Stinger?

    I?ve got the 3.3L engine for context. I?ve never been in a car that implements this feature better. I initially thought I?d turn it off as I have in other cars I?ve owned win this. But I left it on and haven?t looked back. It works so damn well and seamlessly, that I give Kai major kudos for...

    Fully loaded 2019 Kia Stinger vs 2019 Genesis G70, can't believe they are so close in pricing

    I said earlier in this thread that I also would possibly get the G70, but I actually suspect that aside from missing the hatchback, I wouldn?t like the stiffer ride that comes with the sportiness. I enjoy the GT aspects of the Stinger. For me at least, I?ve never had a more comfortable car, even...

    Fully loaded 2019 Kia Stinger vs 2019 Genesis G70, can't believe they are so close in pricing

    Just out of curiosity, what does the 2019 have that the 2018 doesn?t? I looked online on their site and couldn?t find any difference although I also couldn?t figure out how to get a decent summary of all the features after building out the car. I am not going to buy a 2019. Just curious, and I...

    Fully loaded 2019 Kia Stinger vs 2019 Genesis G70, can't believe they are so close in pricing

    I far prefer the Stinger?s GT characteristics being a bit more or a GT car, and I love the hatchback, but if I had to do it all over again, I?d go for the Genesis because of the ?dealer? experience now that I?ve experienced the Kia dealer experience. Course I haven?t test driven the G70 myself...

    I?ve priced them with AWD and they?re neck and neck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kia Stinger may not get a second generation

    I?m not strongly on either side of this discussion, but if you watch Alex on Auto?s review of the 2nd gen Kia K900 to come to the US despite insanely bad sales, perhaps it will give more context. https://youtu.be/JS4EVpCKgHU Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kia Stinger may not get a second generation

    Personally I doubt that Kia?s strategy for the Stinger was ever to be a high volume seller. It?s meant to be a halo car that helps them sell more Optimas and other cars. I suspect they would at least wait to see if it does that before making any decisions. But also, they know from Hyundai, that...

    What oil type is going in your Kia Stinger? Synthetic, Synthetic Blend or Regular Oil?

    I don?t think I?ll mess with anything that?s not fully synthetic with this level of turbo charging. Not worth it. We paid a lot for these cars. Not worth risking anything for the price difference in oils in my view. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ok, saga is over and my beautiful red light is back on above the glove compartment. Most 1st world problem ever, but it makes me happy. :-). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Some ambient lights no longer working

    Just got a call from my dealer and he said they fixed it and that it was their fault. When they replaced my head unit for the fader issue they failed to reconnect a single switch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Some ambient lights no longer working

    I know. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about the lighted stripe above the glove compartment. Is it my imagination that there was a light there? My car is in at the dealer's today, so we'll see what they say too.

    Fifth Gear - KIA Stinger VS Audi S5

    I would also add that the S5 is a sports sedan. It would be interesting to see how the S4 (since it?s also a sports sedan, but lighter without he hatch), does against the Genesis G70. I?d put money on it not doing as well. The Stinger was always meant to be a GT, not a track car. As someone in...
