    Kia Stinger now appears on Cars.com

    Let's hope it works; if the Stinger isn't here by Saturday I'm going to be carless. [ohcrap][paranoid]

    Kia Stinger receives Five Stars in Euro NCAP Crash Test

    And don't forget walk and text; I've had a few people walk right into my path at shopping centers while distracted by their phones. I guess that's why I didn't really think much of auto braking, since I'm always on alert anyway. But it definitely makes a good backup.

    Kia Stinger receives Five Stars in Euro NCAP Crash Test

    Look at that sunroof shatter at 1:50. Yikes. I really didn't care about the auto braking but after seeing it in action, I definitely see the benefit.

    No hood vents!?

    I was thinking about this thread earlier after I noticed base and premium Stingers apparently have hood vents after all, even though the site lists them for GT models only.

    2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia

    I can't think of any other car with such a huge disparity between models; you get either 280 hp or 505. Why not detune the quadro's V6 down to 350-400 hp to cover the middle ground?

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

    I personally wouldn't skip premium in a turbo. My current car, which thankfully goes bye-bye this Saturday, is tuned for both but loses SO much power on regular it could get smoked by a civic. I think the deficit is like 10-13%. I doubt the stinger GT will be seriously affected by using...

    GT1 vs. GT2

    And ventilated seats; miffed I have to spend so much more to get them, but, they'll come in handy during the 10 months of summer in texas.

    2018 Kia Stinger GT2

    Another new color combo for the GT2 has reached a showroom; blue/light gray. Personally I think the light grey leather would look better with black interior....

    2018 Kia Stinger GT2

    Apparently they made last minute changes; there are multiple production GT2s for sale that have red interior. I've seen black ones on autotrader and cars.com, and my dealer has a ceramic silver with red interior en route (already sold, unfortunately). Rule of thumb, don't trust Kia until you...

    2018 Kia Stinger GT2

    Actually, red interior is available on the GT2; there's a black/red AWD GT2 on autotrader right now. If it wasn't 1600 miles away I'd snap it up myself:

    US Market: Which unavailable feature on the Kia Stinger are you most upset the most?

    Definitely remote start via UVO, for me; remote start fobs are so 2000s. It seems like it would be an easy addition, since the Canadians get it, and the US K900 gets it, so, maybe it will come down the line. But for now, I'm pretty pissed about it being cut.

    Finally showing on autotrader.com

    Autotrader has finally added the Stinger. Only one listing showing as of right now, so they're about 194 behind cars.com.

    Kia Stinger now listed on Edmunds.com

    So I called Kia finance, and the rep told me they do NOT forbid out of state leasing. I feel like a newb; I can't believe I took the word of a salesman without verifying. I certainly should have known better than to take the word of a dealer too shady to honor the price listed on their website.

    No automatic door lock feature in the Kia Stinger?

    Is it bad that I wanted them to SHUT UP so we could hear the engine/exhaust..lol
