    Turns out 'recommended' Premium gas doesn't do much

    Fact: If a Stinger GT owner averages ~22 mpg and drives 15,000 miles a year, he's using 682 gallons. Fact: Reg fuel in my area costs $2.51/gallon, Premium $3.19/gallon. A difference of .68 cents/gallon. Fact: That means I'd be paying an additional $464/year to get 3-5 more hp. Fact: Even if I...

    Turns out 'recommended' Premium gas doesn't do much

    The OP's article relays documented test results. Comments about "10% power loss", "the cost of a cup of coffee", etc., are just emotional responses. Show me the hard data, otherwise, the tests 1.4% average hp increase means we're losing 3-5 hp.

    And the weird Stinger reviews just keep on coming ...

    I think 35,000 for North America is good for a brand new sports sedan. And I'm a badge snob ... I love the badge that says KIA!

    For the value/performance? NOTHING! I was just pointing out the video's wild assumption that Stinger GT sales are a "disaster". lol Car has only been out a few years ...

    From a Challenger GT to Stinger GT :)

    You relayed my experiences exactly! lol I loved my S550 Mustang GT, but I wanted a high performance all-season single car solution and the AWD Stinger GT fits the bill.(y)

    From a Challenger GT to Stinger GT :)

    I drove muscle cars through Winters for decades. Not fun anymore. Also, considerable hp increases over the years means that modern muscle cars usually can't put down that power and are radically inconsistent. AWD is the way to go.

    From a Challenger GT to Stinger GT :)

    Good choice.(y) If the SRT Challenger/Charger came in AWD, it would've made for an interesting competitor for cold climate drivers. But alas, no V8 AWD for those two models (much less an SRT version, which would've compared to the Stinger GT).

    And the weird Stinger reviews just keep on coming ...

    He loves the car but says the Stinger is a "sales disaster." lol That is patently absurd. KIA sold 31,000 Stingers in only two years, and for a brand new model in a niche segment that isn't bad.

    Oil change and tire rotation

    Heh there. I drive a 2019 Stinger GT AWD and both my front and rear tires are 225/45 18. They've been rotated as per manufacturer's recommendations.

    What was your reaction the first time behind the wheel of a Stinger??

    Fast as my S550 Mustang GT, equally great styling, 2 more doors, and snow belt required AWD. I'm in!

    Another "review": Seems the well is running dry for unbiased, coherent Stinger reviews

    Seriously, my next door neighbor who drives a 10 year old American sedan could do a better job. The number of quality YT Stinger reviews is rapidly going south. Oh well ...

    Kia Stinger GTS In-Depth Performance Review

    No. No. and ... No. First off, the guy that initially drove the car seems like the kind of person who just likes to hear himself talk. Secondly, the "review" is filled with so many errors, inconsistencies, and sorely biased remarks, so many in fact that it was hard to watch. In summary, I...
