Apparently the Stinger driver pulled out into the path of the taxi and this happened.... http://jalopnik.com/a-poor-kia-stinger-got-its-face-run-over-already-1800660282

Looks like Canada can now order the Stinger (apparently due in November), which for them, only comes AWD and with the V6. http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2017/09/kia-stinger-3-3l-v6-awd-priced-47k-canada.html

Saw this online earlier; Stingers have hit port of Philly. We're getting close!

That optional exhaust sounds pretty good.

I just checked in with a few of the dealers in the area I spoke to a few months back; one still knows nothing, one insists it will be November, and one says not before the end of the year, per her GM who went to some regional meeting last week. So frustrating. I was hoping October, to coincide...

That color is really growing on me.

So Randy Pobst recently drove a Stinger GT for Motor Trend, and the video is available On Demand (but hasn't been posted to site or YouTube yet). Overall a very positive review and he seemed to genuinely like it. He concluded that it's not a track car but it doesn't embarrass itself either...

It's hydrographics actually, does that count as wrap? The entire car appears to be wrapped, the exterior, the roof, the chrome trim. Inside, they also applied hydrographics as well. It's a bit much to my eyes but I'm sure some will like it:

I've always been ok with the chrome trim since it's dark, but for this might work for people that don't like chrome at all....

I don't see anything on their site for the 2.0 but I'm sure it's coming, and I'm sure they will get plenty of power out of it. They seem to squeeze a lot out of the Optima/Sonata turbos, which I would bet are more restricted, so I'm sure we expect big gains for the Stinger too.

How does the price compare to the 4 series Gran coupe, and A5 sportback down under?

Well thank you. Hey I only work two days a week, I have nothing but time to look at Stinger hashtags..lol

Making friends with exotics....

Do you guys down under have any laws protecting warranties? Here we have an act that states a warranty claim cannot be denied by the existence of a modification; they would have to prove the modification caused the failure. This is just anecdotal, but, I have had two cars now that were tuned...

Apparently they couldn't crack 400 hp with a V6 AWD....

Very exciting. Just as I figured, 400+ hp is available with just a simple tune....

Group shots...

More...

Just a bunch of shots, to tide us over while we wait....

Much brighter than I was expecting, then. I thought Sunset was that golden yellow color shown at the auto shows. I like it; yet another color now added to the list.
