    Anyone been able to “re-trim” parts of the dash to make older ones closer to ‘22 GT2?

    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...

    2021 Stinger is looking really sweet

    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...

    Smashed my mirror while reversing

    I was reversing out of my garage when running late and smashed my passenger mirror. It broke a part of the external mirror cover. The mirror itself still works fine. But there is a lot of wind noise. The part can't be replaced without replacing the entire mirror mechnism which costs $960 just...

    Some ambient lights no longer working

    Hi Folks: I?m sure I can get this resolved fairly quickly at the dealer but thought I?d check if any of you have had this happen, and if so what the fix was. The ambient lighting in my car is working with the right color and intensity I setup but it?s stopped all together in the stripe just...

    Kia Service very Disappointing for the price - not surprising, but nonetheless

    [Updated response below - things got a lot better] This is only my experience, so please take it with a grain of salt. I love the Stinger, and don't regret getting it, I figured I'd also post here for folks considering getting one, who are used to a high standard of maintenance for the money...

    Close and lucky encounter with a deer

    I was driving to work yesterday morning when the car in front of me narrowly missed hitting a deer crossing a pretty major road in Potomac MD. I slammed brakes, noticed that another deer was still on the right side of the road. It feels like it all happened in slow motion from there. I slowed...

    Do any of you feel that the Quantum Logix or the ClariFi systems make a difference?

    One area I've been a bit disappointed in with the Stinger is audio. I have a large high quality FLAC library that I put on a USB stick and play as my primary source of music. So the files are not bluetooth or Google Music level MP3s. They're far higher quality, and I noticed that in a big way in...

    New BMW looks strangely familiar or is it just me?

    BMW is launching a competitor to the Porsche Panamera and Audi Q7. I looked at the pics and thought it looks remarkably similar to a car I happen to own... Is it just me...

    I've changed my tires on my GT2 from the stock Michelin Pilot Sport 4 Summer performance tires to Michelin Pilot A/S 3+ performance all-seasons. I plan to keep those on all year round, so am selling the wheels it came with. I used them for less than 140 miles. These are the staggered 19" tires...

    Hi from Gaithersburg MD/DC Metro

    Hi Folks: I got my black GT2 last weekend, and so far am loving it. Outside of being a car and gadget nut, I'm a technical focused exec at a Cyber Security software company. I spend my free time with my wife and daughter mostly, reading about or watching YouTube videos about cars and...
