    What do you guys think of the ring around the Kia Stinger Tail lights?

    I actually saw an Avalon, maybe a 2010 or so, today driving to work and it had lights similiar to this setup. Half of the LED was on the back quarter panels and the other half on the trunk. It was AT LEAST a quarter of an inch off from being aligned properly. I never knew Toyota fixed these to...

    The G80 is more of a sporty luxury car, the Stinger is more track-oriented. What's holding you back from the G80?

    Mainstream rivals? Buick Regal GS?

    Probably not, the Regal platform has been out for awhile and not many people noticed nor cared for it. Depends on how sport-oriented it is but I doubt it'll gain much love. The Regal GS didn't get much love here in the US, maybe saying it's a Holden might perk some interest.

    What do you guys think of the ring around the Kia Stinger Tail lights?

    I like it. However, as we open the trunk more and more and the seals become more and more used, The lining is going to be an issue. If you can tell, there is not a fluid line on the driver side "halo." Now that I've seen this it is going to be on my mind from now on. Fit and finish is something...

    GT AWD acceleration video

    Unless you get the top trim level of the Santa Fe, I would pass. the 4 cyl gets tired easily and they have acres of plastic and cheap feeling finishes. I drive at least 4 a day at my second job. Top trims might be worth it but I wouldn't buy new. Used prices for Kia's/Hyundai's are very...

    What is everyone driving now?

    Infiniti G35 Sedan and Mazda 6i. Probably sell the G once the Stinger is out. I'll keep the Mazda so I can keep the miles off the Stinger (or Chevy SS). Still debating on what to buy. NOT making a decision until I drive the Stinger.

    Red interior ftw. It looks very sharp. P2M w/red interior? They are spoiling us [:o]

    GT AWD acceleration video

    When you have two turbos that run a relatively low boost setup, it'll be effortless. The 3.3 without the twins produces 290hp in Santa Fe application. Two turbos producing an extra 75 hp is, in my opinion, very restricted. It makes sense why it would be that way for reliability reasons, warranty...

    Welcome to the Kia Stinger Forum, please post an introduction

    In that time frame, you still might be able to pick up a new SS. They are skimping off the lot because of price gouging and the market for them is inevitably non-existent. I'm waiting to drive a Stinger to see if I like it. I drove an SS and fell head over heels, which I was expecting before I...

    Kia Tuning Discussions

    It shouldn't take long at all. This motor seems to be spread throughout the entire Hyundai Company (Stinger, G70, G80,). I wouldn't be surprised if they sneak it into an Optima. That is a far stretch but adding another engine option to the top trim level may intrigue buyers. I wouldn't want it...

    Kia Stinger Interior Color Options

    Grey and red are on another level. They should've had a caramel color added. That would definitely elevate the "class" factor

    Welcome to the Kia Stinger Forum, please post an introduction

    Please tell me you've considered a Chevy SS?
  14. Stingin' Away

    You guys think dealers will try to charge over MSRP for the Kia Stinger?

    If you guys are contemplating a Stinger, please go check out a Chevy SS. That's what I'll be getting if the Stinger is a bust. And it'll be a manual [cool]

    Would you guys consider the diesel engine if it was made available in North America?

    I wouldn't just for the fact it's a sports car. If it was a Jetta like BahamaTodd had then maybe. I'm sure it'll sell across the pond though... they love them

    Sibling rivalry; Stinger vs. G70

    The G70 is growing on my luxurious/tame side. It doesn't come close to the Stinger. One gripe I have is the ride heighth of the Stinger. RWD models should be about 1 1/2 inches lower IMO. Nothing wrond with having ride heighth but with it being lower, it'll improve performance and overall look...

    Motor Trend Ignition review

    Randy can drive. Glad he was alright after taking that GT-R off a cliff at Pikes Peak last year. It's hard to review cars like this but when you know how to put thing feeling of the car into words, that's where you'll stand out.

    Finally saw one in person

    Sounds like KIA doesn't want the driver to know they are driving a KIA. That's a shame, they are becoming more and more of an alternative to the mainstream companies. Keep doing your thing KIA, we are all watching
