    Where do incentives fit into the lease negotiating process?

    When negotiating a lease, where do the incentives fit in? For example, if msrp is 50K and lease cash is 5K, do I subtract the 5K from the msrp, and then start negotiating on 45K. And, where do the dealer cash and other incentives (if available) fit into the negotiation process? Of course, my...

    Kia Stinger sales numbers are lower this year compared to last year

    Although I don't want a 2019 Stinger GT2 before Aug, I have been shopping around in SE FL. And, to my surprise, none of my three possible choices (Micro blue/black, silver/ red, ceramic silver/red) were to be found in the state.

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

    As the title says, I'd like to know if those of you with the 3.3L turbo have found that your auto insurance was higher than expected?

    Fellow lurkers... why haven't you bought a Stinger yet?

    Yeah, I'm with you guys. I made up my mind on a 2019 GT2, but can't get it until the lease is up on my present car in August. In early Feb the dealership offered to buy out my lease, but then their monthly figure was too stupidly high for me to consider. So, I guess I will be patiently...

    Possible to custom order?

    Is it possible to custom order a GT2 RWD with the 2L turbo?

    How about a radar detector hardwired DIY install?

    Well done, MMB22, thanks. As for running the wires from the fuse box, up the A-pillar and across the roof liner, had you run into any problems? Like, was it easy to "stuff" the wires behind the pillar/liner, or did you have to remove anything first in order to hide the wires?

    How about a radar detector hardwired DIY install?

    Good stuff, Colereihl...thanks for the pics. You certainly are right about safety in the fuse box. I assume just have to hook into the fuse box and run cable up the A-pillar and across the headliner and then to the V1 clipped to the sunvisor...at least that's the way I've been doing it for my...

    How about a radar detector hardwired DIY install?

    Which fuse to use...want the one that goes on/off with ignition. Also, would you know if I can tap into the overhead? If so, which line? Thanks.

    How about a radar detector hardwired DIY install?

    Didn't know that. Quite cheap, though. However, these types of installs are usually not too difficult and some one should know how???

    How about a radar detector hardwired DIY install?

    Don't have my 2019 GT2 yet (or maybe 2020,) but will in several months. I have my trusty V1 and would like to know if there are any install DIYs out there? Thanks.

    Please compare the GT2 to previously owned sport sedans

    From your replies I am watering at the mouth to get the GT2, now! But, alas, I will have to wait until the C300's lease is up in August. BTW, I really never had any problem with the ATS' infotainment system, although I do realize it may not be the best.

    Please compare the GT2 to previously owned sport sedans

    Torbach, thanks for your nice review. And, you are right about my thinking of the G70, also...which I am! I have no problem with the GT2 not quite being up to the some of the branded sport sedans, but as you say (and so have others,) if not tracking (which I won't be doing,) it's a small...

    Please compare the GT2 to previously owned sport sedans

    Thanks, kezzer. Yeah, I'm looking forward to a "little" extra power; and to know that the GT2's overall quality is on par with the C300 is a big plus. All my cars have been RWD, and that's what I'll be getting with the GT2; so that's a comparison I'd like to see.

    Please compare the GT2 to previously owned sport sedans

    In August, my 2017 Mercedes C300 coupe lease will be up, and after looking at the Camaro 3LT and Alpha Romeo TiSport, I'm pretty sure I'll be leasing a 2019 Stinger GT2. Aside from the C300, in the last 20 years I've had a 2002 BMW 325 (for 11 years) and a BMW 2005 Z4 (for 10 years), and a 2013...

    Is a deal like this possible???

    Deal probably not possible as I emailed to my salesperson and never got a reply...

    Is a deal like this possible???

    Yeah, it might be a great deal, but I haven't presented it to KIA, yet. I'm just asking if it is possible...particularly the part about splitting up the lease cash and gettng 7% off MSRP.

    Is a deal like this possible???

    Looking at a 2019 GT1 (MSRP=@45,100.) My C300's lease is up in August. November has been paid, leaving 8 more months of lease at $489/mo. for a total of $3912. Without any negotiation, KIA offered to pay for the rest of the lease and offered to lease the GT1 to me for $633 (taxes and fees...

    FL Stinger Owners

    Don't have my 2019 GT1 yet and I was hoping that someone here can help me get it. Here's the problem: Lease on my 2017 C-300 isn't up until Aug. Grieco-Delray KIA would buy out the lease, but the 3yr/10K mile lease would cost too much at this point for me to do the deal. I'd appreciate any...
