Fries the tires at will, needs AWD. For some reason (cold weather?) no lateral G's provided. C&D - KIA K5 GT https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a35569252/2021-kia-k5-gt-by-the-numbers/ Price As Tested: $35,835 (base price: $31,585) HP: 290 hp @ 5800 rpm Torque: 311 lb-ft @ 1650 rpm Curb...

Like nearly every car manufacturer, KIA states 87 octane or better. KIA also states less performance/worse fuel mileage with anything less than 91, so if you think you're spending a lot of time at the gas pumps now ...;)

C&D's 0-60 mph test of the current 255 hp 2.0L is 6.0/6.1 (RWD/AWD). When they finally get to test the 300 hp 2.5L, the extra 45 hp should have it running in the mid 5 sec range. That compares to C&D's 3.3L GT times of 4.4/4.6 seconds (RWD/AWD), so if you can afford it get the 3.3L. Goodluck on...

Hi Ho!

Guys, we just had another 7" of snow. The tires performed like a champ! Seriously, can not recommend this tire enough. Here's the Dry/Wet test results from Tire Rack, along with Snow traction test results from their "non-Plus" version. (Tire Rack has yet to Snow test the updated PLUS version...

I drove Mustang GT's, SHO's, etc., and the high performance OEM tires that came on those cars all lasted 20-25k. Nothing much you can do. The tires I just bought are the updated "PLUS" version, which has a revised compound for even better snow traction. And yesterday we got 1/2 foot of snow, and...

Car is two years old, original Potenza RE97AS-02's down to 4/32 to 5/32 (snow performance has dwindled). So I got a set of BFGoodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS put on. Rated very highly during Tire Rack tests, will let you know how it goes ...

Get a lawyer ...

Yeah, whoever that guy was his video was well done! As far as notices/letters, I received mine by mail. Also, if you go in for regular service the dealer will inform you of any recalls pertaining to your car.

Welcome to the best Stinger forum on the net!

Oh well,no car's perfect! My Stinger is almost 2 years old with 21,000 miles and it's been virtually trouble free.(y)

Have I got the video for you! I found it when looking to see what the fix was all about. Looks like it only involves replacing 2 wires underneath the fuse box, switching a couple of the fuses around and then putting a new sticker on the fuse box. They also told me it would take a few hours, so...

Yeah, tough getting good exhaust sounds from anything less than a V8 (an SRT-4 I had was a notable exception, it's "no muffler" factory exhaust sounded great). But as far as tuning goes, the whole piggyback/required plug change thing doesn't interest me. OBD II only tune would've been a...

Man, on the rare occasion when I had tuned a previous car, I found it worthwhile and cost effective because all you had to do is simply plug the $400 tuner into the OBD II Port, have a cup of coffee, and in 3 min you were done. Now you have to run a maze of piggyback wires/plugs, secure the...

I love the OEM KIA emblem in it's sharp contrast bright silver, especially on my Aurora Black. The black emblems would give it a distorted/blurred look.

Enjoy your car Don! I've had my AWD GT for over a year and a half, haven't done a single thing to it. Love it the way it is.(y):)

I can now park my car near "other vehicles or structures" again!

You'll get tired of it real quick. Lol

Let's Play "Find The Stinger"! (buried somewhere under 31" of fresh snow)
