- 2018 Kia Stinger GT2
Seems like a great car, it really too bad its not selling.

The 2019 K900 rides on a lengthened and widened version of the same platform underpinning the Stinger and Genesis G70. When combined with its new front suspension geometry and near 50/50 weight distribution, the result is a full-size sedan that's learned new tricks from its sportier kin without forgetting it's a luxury car. Turn-in is crisp, and body motions are superbly controlled, banishing the floatiness and wallowing that plagued the old K900. Steering is light and accurate but lacks feedback, further emphasizing comfort over sportiness. Handling on winding roads is fine for a 4,650-pound car, but the K900 drives its size and defaults to understeer when pushed too far. The standard torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive system helps bring the rear around and prevent the car from plowing through turns. Ride comfort is outstanding even with the stiffer North American chassis, gliding serenely over road imperfections. Put the electronically controlled suspension in Comfort+ mode and the car becomes a super-cushy isolation chamber, perfect for long road trips.
