    I messed up...

    Ouch, I would be really upset if that had been my car, but nobody got injured, which is the most important thing. Can I ask ... what driving mode were you in? (I‘m wondering why stability control didn’t save the day for you).

    Has auto insurance been excessive with the GT2-Big engine?

    £30/month for the 3.3L GTS here in the UK. Cheaper than my previous Buick Regal GS equivalent ...

    Limited Edition Stinger GTS

    Horsepower bump is the last thing it needs. But Orange-Only is a bit of a brave colour decision, and a bi-modal exhaust option would have been good. Like the look of the D-AWD updates, LSD and the carbon bits, though.

    Kia Stinger GT - 2018 Hagerty Hot List of Future Collector Cars

    If I had been thinking logically, the 2.0 Petrol would have been the engine to go for (let's ignore the UK Diesel option). Most of my driving is on roads full of other cars, and 97% of the time the 2.0 would be enough. But there are times when it's fun to annoy BMW 320d/Audi A4 2.0d drivers who...

    Hey, 51 is pretty young [:)] I?m not ready for the retirement home just yet.

    Test drove 2019 Stinger GT AWD - here is what happened

    There shouldn?t be any vibration at all coming through the steering wheel. Either a wheel needs balancing, or maybe has been bent out of true by hitting a pothole or road debris. As to tyre noise, It?s not a Merc S-Class, but I don?t think it?s any worse than similar cars I have driven.

    Any other 2019 Kia Stinger GT owners?

    I plan to fit Michelin Pilot Sport 4S when my Continentals wear out.

    Any other 2019 Kia Stinger GT owners?

    Here in the UK, all the RWD versions had an LSD for 2018.

    Stinger vs G70

    None of these Genesis cars are imported into the UK, so not an option for us.

    Who's going to let people eat in their Kia Stinger?

    Permitted: Mints that are not dropped down between the seat and the tunnel. Small cookies that can be eaten whole. M&Ms. Forbidden: Any type of gum. Exploding cakes or pastries. Anything with an egg in it. Milk. Babies.

    Fuel pump failure

    The system with a high pressure pump and a lift pump sounds very similar to the systems found on most modern Diesels.

    Do you own firearms?

    I have a cricket bat.

    Mrs V is allowed to drive it, too.

    Kia Stinger in World's Greatest Drag Race

    What was the Stinger driver listening to at launch time? Debussy? Ravel? Advice for next time: tune into a station playing ?Ace of Spades? or ?Into the Void? instead.

    Sunset Yellow Kia Stinger Repaint Process

    I?d hope that on a new car where the paint hasn?t had a chance to fade yet, that the colour match should be good. I was more intererested in the sections beside and below the tailgate in picture #3.

    What does everyone do for a living?

    Role is closest to being Nanny McPhee, but working in API Management and I.T. Security.
