Here's an example of why I prefer the Stinger to the G70... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For me the biggest upsides of the Stinger are in its utility, since it's a hatchback. Just yesterday we purchased a bathroom countertop with two sinks. Folded the rear seats, removed the trunk cover and it fit without an issue. It would not have fit into a sedan like the G70. Next are it's...

Yeah, the green is gorgeous, that screen is really nice, and more safety features are always good. Btw, Kia’s safety systems are about the best in the industry. Reviewers across the board keep saying the same thing. Recently watched a review on the Throttlehouse YouTube channel (highly recommend...

In my case it was the wiring they messed up when they replaced my head unit. They fixed it pretty quickly once I took it in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome to the group. This car is awesome, and I’m sure you’ll love it. I’ve had mine for 3 years and 3 months now. One or two issues that were resolved, and nothing since then. Been very reliable, and that warranty is excellent. Every time I drive, I enjoy it immensely. One question, given that...

Well, I went to have a look at the ‘22 models. The GT1 has the identical interior to last time. The GT2 in the US is pretty much identical. The suede option is only available in Canada for now, and the GT2 regular option looks like the current one but with some fake stitching that’s supposed to...

Hi Folks: Minor really, but I love the new Canadian suede for the materials on the dash, and I really feel the quality of materials on the dash of my ‘18 GT2 is one of the weakest points of the car. I don’t see it being worth upgrading just for that but I’ve seen some really impressive...

I like to think that if we go quickly enough we start getting younger. [emoji6] Anyway, this car is one of those that transcends age. Us older folks enjoy it, and so do a lot of younger folks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

In my case, I failed to follow up. The issue involved happened to me mid-drive and almost caused a serious accident. Once I posted the video of the gearshift not being able to get back into drive on Twitter, with a few choice words, someone from Kia dm’d me on Twitter within 20 mins. Shortly...

Maybe you didn’t mention price, but you’re comparing two cars that are miles apart on price when specced the same. Having said that. I can’t argue with you on fuel economy. It is very bad compared to other cars with similar HP and it is definitely an area that Hyundai/Kia need to work on...

Why do you really need LSD on the AWD version of a GT car? You don’t. These are different cars for different markets, and the price difference again is huge. If price were not issue for me, and reliability didn’t matter to me (I’ve owned 3 BMWs and they spent more time in the shop than any other...

WRT the m340i, I built one out to match the specs if my GT2, and it was around $61,150 MSRP vs. $52k, and the Stinger pre 22 is being discounted by up to $10k. https://www.bmwusa.com/build-your-own.html#/studio/efg9a1pb/summary So I’m afraid you’re her one making things up or misunderstanding...

If you have roads with potholes near you, definitely worth it. Prior to this car, I had a Gen 7 Golf R without the VW adaptive suspension, and dropped from the stock 19” wheels to 18” after a week of driving to work through the pothole ridden Clara Barton Parkway (Suburban Maryland to Washington...

The great news is that you won’t go wrong with either choice. If you end up getting the AWD, it’s rear biased and frankly in sports mode, feels like a RWD car 90% of the time. It only feels like AWD in maximum speed launched due to better traction, and in snow, where with either winter or all...

I have the (‘18) GT2 AWD, but I drive it year around. If I didn’t need AWD, I’d take RWD every time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome. Absolutely great color choice. 3 years in and still loving mine (black with red interior). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Really great guide. Thank you.

Tough question. I guess I’d start by asking you how much gas you’re burning today with your Durango, because the V6 is not exactly economical. The new ‘22 model 2.5l turbo 300hp will be. In my Stinger GT2, I do a fair amount of city driving and average around 19mpg. In terms of fun to drive...

Bottom line is I still love my 2018 2.5 years later. The new model is nice, but it luckily doesn’t change anything for me. It’s a reasonable update that also doesn’t make our older ones worth that much less in my view. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a 2018 GT2. Absolutely loving it. But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a bit jealous of what’s coming in the ‘21 model, or at least what we know so far. I like the external facelift, but not particularly exciting to me. But the interior changes I’m really liking...
