    I think I'll regret it...

    I like you have been looking at all kinds of "other" vehicles while we wait. The dealer I visit has decided to not charge the Demo Stinger battery, so test fitting is out. I am sure you have seen the stories of my trials on the forum ;). But I am researching all the competition and the bang for...

    Kia Stinger GT Wide Body by WestCoast Customs

    For some reason I feel it is missing a Whale Tail and a big Monster sticker across the back window. Hopefully it is just the way the picture presents the mods, but I am not a fine so far.

    Tall Buyers beware - An FYI

    Stinger1168 the room once I am in the car is fine for the driver, minus the headroom issue which I have in most cars. The rear passenger room was a real concern as my passengers are tall, i find it hard to think that the optima offers better rear seat room. But to your point on the sunroof...

    2018 Kia Stinger trim levels, options and packages. USA spec (both RWD & AWD, 4cyl & V6)

    Mike from what I understand the base 2.0 and Base GT will have the smaller nav screen. The Premium and GT1 and GT2 will have the larger NAV screen. I believe there is also a change in the instrument cluster screen based upon the trim levels. The owners manual thread may be able to shed some...

    Tall Buyers beware - An FYI

    Vegas - That is my main problem as well, I have to have the seat at 85^-80^ to be comfortable. I will say that in my youth I was 6'7" so today about 6'5". I will be trying again just to be sure, can not give up so easily. :)

    Tall Buyers beware - An FYI

    If you are a taller person, 6ft plus, I recommend you get to a demo car as soon as possible. This past Sat the wife and I spent time, "trying on" cars. The Stinger was first, and I have to say with as low as the car is and as far back and low that the seat has to be to comfortably fit to drive...

    Kia Stinger 360 Camera

    After looking at cars on most of the morning on Saturday, Kia, Hyundai, and Genesis being the focus. The Optima and Cadenza only offer the Surround View Camera in the TOP trim levels. i am hopeful this will be different on the Stinger.

    Pricing announced

    So I began thinking, this is your warning turn away now, if the safety features are optional on all Trim levels would that be a "dealer enabled option"? Would the dealer just have to turn on a software feature and the hardware is already in place on all trim levels? Anyone heard of that in the...

    Pricing announced

    TurboTX, I have seen some of those adds, but around here there are not that many Sports to start with and dealers list those Autotrader prices applying all discounts and incentives possible. For example, UBER, Driver, Military, College student, Hurricane discount, finance discount, and so...

    What do you guys think of the ring around the Kia Stinger Tail lights?

    I am looking forward to the "aftermarket" tweaks we can do with the LED lighting system. A progress turn indicator like a Mustang would be on my to do list once the "hacking" starts, if the light is still functional of course. I see that the light flash for some reason on alot of the Korean...

    Would you purchase a Kia Stinger Coupe?

    I agree I would love a wagon option. Rumor is an SUV based upon the platform in late 2018 and hopefully we would get a wagon also. Long ago when I read stories of the first AMG Hammer the idea of a true sport wagon was on my list of dream cars. No idea why, perhaps it is the "sleeper" effect. :)

    What would you change?

    I would like to have seen the Sunroof be a true option, not a standard feature. I would prefer a little more leg room for rear passengers, a tall driver eliminates a seating position almost automatically. I would also agree that the chrome is a bit much and would prefer a body color option. I...

    Mainstream rivals? Buick Regal GS?

    I know when the pricing was announced for the Stinger I started to look at the "competition" in the German brands. The S5 came to mind but the price is more than can be justified epsc. when with the warranty of the Stinger. I mean the pricing even has me looking outside the sport sedan market to...

    Pricing announced

    Price at the moment. I am hoping that that will be a little more bang for the buck with the Stinger. I would really like to see what the option costs are on the Stinger and what I can break out at the different trim levels. With the G80 Sport you get what it comes with and that is basically a...

    Kia Stinger Australian MY18 Full Brochure

    But those are just in AUS dollars. .Just Kidding :) I am with you, as the cost here for the GT2 trim is enough to have me consider another vehicle. My research for a vehicle has restarted just in case.

    Kia Stinger Australian MY18 Full Brochure

    Thank you for the information! It would appear based upon this that all 3.3L models in AUS are getting the Limited slip diff! That is very good news! Also only the GT comes standard with the power sunroof, again great news for me if it holds true in the US.

    Would you purchase a Stinger GT with a manual?

    LOL I was going to say something similar. After driving a LX5.0 with a 5 Speed the comfort and ease of an automatic actually adds to driving for me.

    Kia Stinger Safety Highlights

    These are the features that I am interested in, but from what I have seen and we have discussed, seems only standard on the GT2. I am curious what this option will cost on the other trim levels. I was speaking with a friend who used to be in the retail auto world and the cost of these may make...

    What is everyone driving now?

    Vegas, I would post pictures of my Honda Pilot, but it is just a tad plain. :) My Dakota R/T has been neglected for a while and is just being pulled out of the mothballs. Once it is back to fighting strength I will throw up a picture.
