    Do Kia dealers offer loaners for warranty work?

    Depends on the dealer, mostly. I had my '18 GT2 in for head unit, headlight adjustment, and fixing hood latch - was told it would be 6-7 hours. When I made the appt I was offered a loaner. Reminder call for the appt, no loaners. 1 service advisor said Kia doesn't give them enough loaners...

    How does your Stinger handle in the snow?

    After having my '18 GT2 AWD in New England Weather..... It's a decent winter car. Weight and traction with the stock 18" all-seasons is decent, I probably won't buy snow tires for this car, I see it as limited by front clearance and visibility more than traction for my use. The traction control...

    How are your seats?

    I know this is an old thread but I don't see any other threads yet....instead of starting a new one... I'm concerned about my 1 mo old GT2 with black Nappa leather. The seats are absolutely sumptuous to sit in but... Passenger's seat already has a line from where my daughter dragged her shoe...

    Kia Stinger PS573 Radio Fade is no longer centered

    Stopped by my dealer today - I'm having the fade-to-rear issue. Service advisor took my word and ordered a replacement head unit, should be in end of the week. He promised to have a loaner car for me. Will update on my experience. -Greg C

    Kia Stinger Out The Door Price Thread

    I knew the car had been on the lot for a while, and had heard that it was being repaired. Talked with sales guy in person, then chatted over text for a few weeks. I was trying to squeeze a few more $ until MurlinatoR pointed out that this was a great deal and I should just do it if I wanted the...

    Kia Stinger Out The Door Price Thread

    I've been watching the Stinger since it was first announced for production - had the GT2 in red as my desktop wallpaper for a while...in Mass. Bought a 2018 GT2 AWD in Hi-Chroma Red a few weeks ago. Got an additional discount because the car was damaged on the lot and repaired. (I looked it...

    Pricing a damaged car

    Thanks again for the feedback. I talked with my salesman and leased the car without further squirming. The extra $1000 discount plus extra lease cash puts the buyout (or even residual purchase) where I wanted to be. I looked over the repairs: substantial damage to the right side but work looks...

    Pricing a damaged car

    Looks like they're offering about $7900 in total discount then the lease cash. The lease deal is pretty disappointing at $585/mo but it looks like we are at about $36k to lease them buy out. Still feels like I should be able to do better at this point. TIA for any feedback!

    Pricing a damaged car

    So, I saw the new lease offers and texted my guy back. I said I had talked with a friend who thought I was asking too much discount and apologized. I asked if he could do this: $52,300.00 MSRP -$6,406.00 Standard discount on SGT2 (listed on dealer website) -$2,000.00 Dicount - damaged and...

    Pricing a damaged car

    I appreciate the perspective. I had seen discussion in other places that a damaged car should be discounted and thoroughly inspected....was hoping for a really good deal given my budget doesn't really have an extra Stinger payment for a few months...would have to be a killer deal for me to bite...

    Pricing a damaged car

    Hi there - I've been driving a 2011 Optima Turbo since new - still love the car so I'm not in a hurry to make a move unless it's a great deal. That said, I've had the High-chroma red GT2 as my desktop wallpaper since the Stinger came out :) I learned that a dealer near me has an early run 2018...
