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

    The weight doesn't concern me, in fact it 7lbs lighter then the GTR R35. I'm just saying there is a way to get good gas mileage but most of the guys that by the stinger have a heavy foot that's why the mileage suck. Why does anybody buy a car because they like it, most people buy this car...

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

    Its all on how you drive, the dealer told me that you only get 300 miles on a tank of gas. they're full of crap, I'm hitting 300 miles at 3 quarters of a tank on average, sometimes higher sometimes lower, depends on how I drive. Now in sport mod with the JB4, your right about 19mpg, I've had it...

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

    To get that mileage you have to be easy on the throttle all the time, plus there are guys that have these cars that are not get anywhere near 30mpg because they don't drive in ECO mod but for each is there own, I like getting good gas mileage. If your reading on the dash says 22mpg and you jump...

    AWD vs. RWD on a GT?

    For me it's just preference, I prefer RWD because that's what I grew up with. I've never had an AWD car or a four wheel drive truck but if I lived where it snowed a lot I would probably get a AWD car. It all comes down to your preference mjsteelega, what do you prefer. I wanted a lighter car too.

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

    The paddle shifters will allow you to shift anytime you want just like a manual. Ckeeler is right about the down shifting, It's quick but it's not supercar quick. If you drive on the freeway and you put the car in ECO mode your gas mileage will be in the low 30mpg. I've gotten as high as 35mpg...

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

    Welcome to the forums CptNut, the best way to get into a Stinger is a lease to own, that's what a lot of people do. Your payment is cheaper and there is lease money you can put down towards the car. When you do pick one up, you will be impressed with it but like any car you can make it better...

    Aftermarket swaybar End Links

    The stock endlinks on the car have a lot of flex and the ball joint is plastic. You would notice more of a difference when you change the sway bars out. With the sway bars an endlinks changed out it will make the setup more rigid.

    Has auto insurance been excessive with the GT2-Big engine?

    My insurance went down, I was paying 189.00 a month for two cars, now I'm paying 119.00 a month for the Stinger GT1. I thought it was going to be high but its not.

    Jb4 chip

    I agree with you rob, I leave my JB4 and every mod on the car. Matt if you're concerned about leaving the JB4 on, take your car to a small garage to have the oil changed an only take it to the dealer for warranty work that way you don't have to take it off.
