The guys at MotorTrend feature the Kia Stinger 3.3TT against some of the toughest competitors out there and, in my opinion it did very well, considering most of its competitors costs 3 or 4 times more.

I think it could have been slightly better if the driver had launched it better. Nearly every car launched ahead of it. Still great to see it among the best cars out there.

I'm surprise the Stelvio and the Challenger beat the Stinger.

Bad launch but still not bad overall considering he did the 1/4 mile in 13.1.

It's also hard to be tagged with a hand full of blank check vehicles. LOL

What was the Stinger driver listening to at launch time?

Debussy? Ravel?

Advice for next time: tune into a station playing ?Ace of Spades? or ?Into the Void? instead.
