How does launch control differ from standing on both pedals at the lights, then releasing the brakes?

Have it shipped to Portsmouth, UK, and get ?Jim? to sort it out [;)] https://www.cardents.co.uk/about/ He works for the local Mercedes dealerships, and the results are truly invisible. More realistically, the dealer needs to find their own local ?Jim?.

I'd prefer my engine cover to look more like this: (Same engine, from a Genesis)

I don't have a Stinger. 13:00 hours next Thursday, that will change. The car has arrived at the dealer, they will PDI Mon/Tues. [:D][:D][:D]

So yesterday I was watching YouTube videos of Kia Stinger reviews. One of them is a bit weird: it's not so clear, the screen is grainy, and shows what looks like a Kia Salesman having a very bad hair day followed by an image of a wheel. I flick to the next video, but the phone rings. I get up...

Would an airline accept a bi-modal exhaust as checked luggage?

My current car is a manual. But it gets to the point with more powerful cars that the gearbox and clutch needed to cope with the torque become so heavy to use that changing gear isn?t much fun any more. I?ll be okay with two pedals and the paddle shifters.

Would that be another Stinger, or something else? [;)]

I don't think there are any shims - you just replace one bucket with a different sized one.

That makes things a lot clearer. Many thanks for the link.

In the UK we get pretty much everything that is referenced in the handbook if you buy a GT-S. 360 Camera Wireless charging Heated rear seats / Heated and ventilated front seats Heated steering wheel Shift by wire gearbox etc. This all sounds good until you see the sticker price, which is...

So how many hours labour (English spelling [:)]) should I budget for if they did need adjustment?

The manual says every 60k miles or 6 years ... "Inspect for excessive valve noise and/or engine vibration and adjust if necessary. Have an authorised Kia dealer perform the operation." Posts on a Hyundai forum suggest that their 3.3L engine has the camshaft driving solid buckets, rather than...

Looks too low.

Can someone add "Hayling Island" as the 51st State?

Thanks, that sounds good.

I?m making my way through the downloaded manual (many thanks for the link). I was wondering, if the battery on the Smart Key runs out, I can use the mechanical key to open the door. Obviously the remote functions of the Smart Key would not work. But would the engine start? (i.e. does the...

Maybe there was a typo somewhere? Same car for $47,262 seems a lot more reasonable.

I don't think Kia are trying for volumes in England with the Stinger. It's more about having a halo car to raise the image of the brand and shift more of the mainstream cars. Hardly any discount off sticker price is possible here. Couple this with the really quite large discounts available on...

Yeah, the dealer offered me a test drive, but I was crazy busy at the time. I guess dealers are used to fending off the test pilots, but this time it was a dealer almost chasing the customer across the yard with a set of keys (lol). I'd also spent so long watching YouTube reviews that I didn't...
