Honestly I didn't learn anything new in any of the articles..lol. They basically mirror what we've heard in other first drives.

Good reads though, all mostly positive and flattering:

Skimming through the articles, it seems we may know more about the Stinger here haha.

I have KDM demo car fatigue, especially after learning about potential de-contenting (likely to keep prices in check). Are these actual US-spec cars, or should I just skip the clicks since nothing new?

Lol....good way to put it. I don't think any of them specifically state they were US-spec, and this was from weeks back, so, I'd bet they're KDM. Even if they're US-spec, Kia seems to be making final tweaks all the way to start of production so stuff could still change.

But yeah, it's just more of the same; good reads if you're bored or just want to stay in the loop. The only tidbit that I didn't already know was the Brembos feature fade compensation.
