    Payment estimator is finally working on Kia.com

    This is the lease estimate I just got for a GT2. Kinda what I was expecting:

    US Configurator/Builder is LIVE!!

    Perfect...I never keep cars over 39 months anyway..lol

    US Configurator/Builder is LIVE!!

    If they don't offer it here too I think it may be the camel's back-breaking straw for me. I've bit my tongue and haven't complained about the features they've snatched from the US version, but if this is cut too, that's it for me, I'll have to move on to the next car on my list.

    Who would purchase a plug-in hybrid Kia Stinger?

    Heck yeah I would, so long as it looked like the gas model.

    US Configurator/Builder is LIVE!!

    I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that the UVO phone app will have a remote start function. I figure if the Rio has it, surely the Stinger should too. Let's hope so anyway.

    US Configurator/Builder is LIVE!!

    I still don't see the logic in yellow being available only on the GT or GT2, but not the GT1. I also don't see the logic in LSD being optional on the GT but not the GT1. Edit: ATX caught it too, I see..lol.

    Kia Stinger - 2018 Motor Trend Car of the Year Finalist

    As much as I'd love for the Stinger to take it, I have a feeling it's going to be either the Model 3 or the Alfa Romeo. The Tesla breaks new ground and seems good to drive, and they've always loved the Alfa, since it's dynamically at the top of the class. We'll see soon....

    Kia Stinger - 2018 Motor Trend Car of the Year Finalist

    Surprising that the heavier AWD GT got better mileage and stopped shorter than the RWD. And speaking of mileage, I hope they were beating the snot out of them, seeing as none of the trio cracked 20 mpg in the city.

    Do you plan to Finance or Lease the Kia Stinger?

    I voted lease also; hoping for a 3/12k, since I don't drive much anymore. If the lease numbers stink, I'll whip out the blank check from my credit union and just finance the thing instead.

    Which insect do you identify with the Kia Stinger?

    As a Scorpio, I've always been obsessed with scorpions, so that would be my pick. But, I will say yellow Stingers do remind me of bees, with the black hood vents, dark headlights and black roof. In fact, bees will likely be attracted to it; they certainly were always all over my yellow...

    Production Exhaust Sound

    The models driven this week at the media launch are preproduction US spec versions, and they have the new, throatier exhaust. Look up Redline Reviews, Thestraightpipes, Matt Maran, or The Fast Lane car; they all have reviews posted and all took a few moments to rev the engine so you can hear the...

    2018 Kia Stinger GT Review by Matt Maran Motoring

    He talked up the ONE feature I originally had to have, but had convinced myself I could live without; the ventilated seats. My current car has them, and even though they aren't that great, it's better than nothing, during texas's 7 month summer. Now that I know the GT2 has really good ones...

    2018 Kia Stinger GT Redline Review

    Actually on the US version, that open area is deleted since there's no wireless charging; they left a space in front of the ports though:

    Official Ceramic Silver & Ghost Grey Kia Stinger Pictures Thread

    I'm supposed to be waiting for Stinger but the M3 is whispering in my ear; this photo certainly isn't helping me resist one...lol. Damn that really looks good. I never noticed how many cars come in this color but I'm seeing it everywhere now.

    Official Ceramic Silver & Ghost Grey Kia Stinger Pictures Thread

    I'm officially in love with this color:

    No hood vents!?

    Correct, only V6 models.

    Sunset Yellow only available on GT and GT2 Kia Stingers only

    Saw this earlier, been pissed about it since reading it. Trying not to be a complainer but man they are doing some silly stuff with this car.

    Gas mileage estimates released

    Pretty much what I was expecting:

    Loose boost line found on the Kia Stinger

    Yes, right after I first got it (and mine is one of the first ones so they knew nothing about it at the time) and again after a recall service.
