    Ark Performance GRIP Catback System - KIA STINGER 3.3TT

    It sounds pretty good! I'd like to hear it under load with the car driving away and driving by.

    Official Atomic Blue & Micro Blue Kia Stinger Pictures Thread

    It's an ok color but I wish it was a little darker and had a slightly different tint. I'm glad it's a color that a lot of people like though. But it's not for me:)

    Which drive mode do you prefer the most?

    For those of you who only drive in sport mode, how is your gas mileage? Particularly on the highway? I read somewhere that the car won't go into 8th gear when in sport mode. Is that true?

    Which drive mode do you prefer the most?

    I thought that was custom mode. I was thinking smart mode was the cars computer adjusting things to what it thought the driver might need but I really don't know.

    Which drive mode do you prefer the most?

    I don't have a Stinger yet. And I didn't vote because, depending on the situation, I'd be going through all the modes. If I commuted I'd be using Eco mode. General driving comfort mode obviously for comfort but also to take it easy on the structure to keep squeeks and rattles to a minimum...

    Official Thunder Grey & Panthera Metal Kia Stinger Pictures Thread

    I think this is the best video of the panther metal color. The color isn't as black as other pics would lead you to believe but it is still a dark color. I wish I could get a GT2 in this panther metal with a red interior. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8QuViMVlyM

    FS *****Sunset Yellow Limited Edition Stinger now available*****

    I'm not a fan of the yellow myself but I know a lot of people were waiting for this color. Is the yellow color the only thing that makes this a "Limited Edition" ?

    Who is disappointed we didn't get the suede headliner?

    AND the lack of a 360 camera AND the lack of exterior/interior color choices....

    Who is disappointed we didn't get the suede headliner?

    I am. I first noticed the micro suede headliner when I sat in a preproduction Stinger at last years NYIAS. It was a really nice touch. Granted not many people are going to look up or feel it but I thought it was something really nice that helped set it apart from its competitors. Since then...

    Lower top speed with all season tires???

    If this is true, it's important to realize that if you later change to the higher speed rated summer 19" wheels and tires, the car is still limited to 149. You'll have to get into the software and reprogram it to achieve the 167 limit and from what I understand, KIA won't do that. You'll have...

    Lower top speed with all season tires???

    I've been reading lately that if one orders the 3.3TT GT with the 18" wheels and all season tires FROM KIA, your car will have a lower top speed. Normal top speed is 167mph and with the 18" all seasons ordered at the dealer, KIA will reduce the speed limiter so the top speed is 149 mph. I'm...

    Another twin turbo ... WOW!

    Another twin turbo ... WOW!

    This dealership has been doing this for a while. It's incredible how affordably you can get the power upgrades. 800 to 1200hp!!! WOW! But I personally wouldn't do it without a warranty. I wonder if they did any cooling upgrades? And then there's the traction... or lack of it:) It's cool...

    Official Deep Chroma Blue Kia Stinger Pictures Thread

    I thought you may have gotten it painted at an private autobody shop. It's good you got it repainted by KIA. I was wondering how the paint matched up with all that crazy flake in it. I thought it might look different if it wasn't done at the factory. It looks like they did a great job in the...

    Official Deep Chroma Blue Kia Stinger Pictures Thread

    It looks great! The flake in that paint is insane. Are these pics before or after the repairs from the ceramic coat uv lights? If it's after, how did the place do with matching the paint with the original?

    First in the World!!!

    How much horsepower will make you happy with the Kia Stinger?

    When the Stinger first came out I was hoping for 400hp but I think the 365hp it comes with is acceptable...for now. The car has great performance for 365hp. I would like to see 425hp eventually and if I was to modify the engine, I'd bring it up to about 425hp and then leave it alone.
