@@Guest2022_ so I have to be fully transparent, the car is beautiful and drives the same, but it also comes with some common annoyances like rattles and squeaks. The dealers all seem to different from each other, for instance the first service was amazing no issues. But this second service at another location is a nightmare. Some people have no issues at all, but the quality could be better for the price point. Still an amazing car and value proposition IMO. Engine and drivetrain seem very solid which is why I’m here.

@@jerryqin4459 depends on if you modify it of course, power and drivetrain feel very strong in this car, even with the way I have it set up, it doesn’t struggle or act like I’m hurting it. If you keep it stock, I wouldn’t worry as it has a killer warranty. After 100k long term I’m not sure, it is a performance car so I would expect things to break. Kind of hard to answer this one honestly.

With that said I was never more surprised and thrilled after a test drive then after my first drive in the Stinger. I always figured I’d circle back around to the Stinger but sadly I’ve missed my chance. It does live on in the Genesis G70 but nothing proves to me more that the car market is truly dead then the Stinger not selling. Very sad

Highways and everything and I think it's because of the limited cause they double the with fiber carpet or something like that the inside of the outside where the wheels are and for the hatch maybe just the way it closes with the electric trunk and it tells is a cool car in the snow it's a tank...ext black put some protectetion for the paint because you're right about it good looking but not good quality...So just wanted to say thanks cause I did all the mods because of you're video's and I'm really enjoying my car 👍

2020 gt1 rwd owner. Almost 20k miles. Its a great car. Its not perfect, but with a few bolt ons I am very happy. First thing I did was the eibach sway bars. The eibach sway bars are way stiffer and cleaned up the body roll and turn in is much sharper. I have a set of ark lowering springs. 1" drop, factory spring rates, so that should help settle a bit more. The brakes are kinda shit. Stop tech Pads fixed 90%, I have stop tech rotors on order. I did catback mbrp stainless exhaust which sounds good and is a lot more fun. The bms pedal tuner is the most recent add on, better throttle response in comfort mode. Coming from a bmw its not 100%. But considering the price of a comparable vehicles v6 panamara, 440i, a7 etc i don't mind ironing out a few bugs. The warranty doesn't hurt the price of kind either.

I agree, they have rumored it to be ending this coming year. The G70 with the 3.3TT will most likely stay as it outsells the stinger 3:1. They are in a weird sport since everyone is going EV it seems. Regardless, it really is a great car and a blast to drive. I’ve had a lot of cars in the past and that new feelings wears off after 3 months or so, but not with this one. I still look forward to driving it and get really excited to this day

@jacopovalentino 2 жыл бұрын
@@twn2rbo Thanks for the reply. No chance to test drive it... I live in Portugal and "eco" taxation on big engines is a killer. Stinger is available as a special order only. I think I have a unique chance to buy it used directly from KIA (KIA director's corporate car) but the car is in another province (and I feel I have to move fast on this one). I think I will risk a "blind date"... I have a manual gearbox SLK350 as a daily driver and that's great fun on twisty roads. But for long trips with the wife it's not even thinkable. I like the fact the Stinger is a bit heavy. In my experience a bit of weight and a long wheelbase bring better highway steadiness and comfort. And from what I hear, the GT still behaves decently on B roads. And the looks...? To me it has a bit of retro look! Kind of a modern Jensen Interceptor... Love it!

My biggest gripe and i have this car too is that you can't open the hatch from the inside. That should not be something that you can only get on the GT2. I honestly wanted a GT1 as it offers the most bang for your buck. But the GT got me having to deal with the annoying sunroof rattle that I hear owners complain about. Also, the apple carplay not being wireless is just a universal thing. However, there is a dongle to gives anyone wireless apple carplay. Whats funny is that I thought the car was quiet asf when driving cause i came from a Corolla and that thing was loud loud! Good review! One more note when it came to the paint. Before I pulled the trigger I did a lot of searching and the very first thing I did was get a partial PPF and did a ceramic coat. Been solid ever since.
@twn2rbo 2 жыл бұрын

I said it's a Kia and he couldn't believe it. He said the Maserati dealership is down the street and the Stinger looks like one.

Brakes faded to quick and only 157ft 70 - 0... front rotors already warped on me after a few thousand miles. This car floats too much for my taste if I'm going to hit the canyons (yes even when i upgraded the sway bars) with it or abruptly change lanes... great for highway racing though to a point unless you wanna upgrade the entire turbo rig & meth injected. Rather a CTR which runs circles around this car in the canyons, and with a few simple mods can give it a challenge in a straight line... don't need all that heavy ass weight. :) If you plan on 'street racing' in hilly curvy areas (like SoCal) this wouldn't be my car of choice. Roll racing... i think you can do better with a Camaro 10A LT1... less money and better times all around not mention better braking and handling out of the box.

Great video man I’m so excited to get this car. I’m aiming for the GT2 AWD 2019 or higher I’m fine with and I need the red interior. Currently I’m 24 with a SXL Optima 2013, using it to build credit and maybe pay off and keep as a daily while I use the stinger as that fun car I randomly jump in since the optima isn’t worth much. I’m hoping to do it within the next year and a half to two years. It’s only 9k left on the optima and I save a lot so I’ll end up paying it off once i hit my savings goal after a while. Just trying to stay smart and wait until I’m very stable first. thanks for the dope video.

You sound like your on your way man, keep working hard. The GT2 is awesome regarding its extra features of luxury. You should be able to find a great deal since the residual value usually isn’t the best on performance cars. Just make sure you look it over really good of course. There’s plenty of them out there that are well taken care of and never modified, just be patient. Thanks for the support 💯👊

Love the intakes, one of my favorite mods ever. Super loud. Yes, the squeak is super annoying, 1k miles until my next service is due, so I’m going to have them fix it then

Thanks for the great vlog, i just put my order in for a scorpion in blk w/red leather like yours, just one question, just found out today KIA will stop making the stinger in 9 months, would u still buy one if you knew they will discontinue this car and model??
@twn2rbo 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Yeah I would IF they do. Kia Motors has yet to make an official statement, but a lot of sources are claiming this due to lack of sales. If they make that official, the price may go up due to supply and demand. There is a huge aftermarket support for this car and will continue to be available for mods. Also, this car is quite easy to work on. The Scorpion is sick!! 🐝💨💨

Can you make video on how you did the amplifier install ? thinking about adding a single sundown 10 or 12 shallow in spare tire area.

I will eventually, next in line are the oil catch can, I’m at 7k mi on odometer and that’s way over due, then JB4 log video and 0-60 with Dragy. But, I will do one. In the meantime one of my videos shows where I have the amp installed, the main box where I tapped in is to the right - it’s going to be hard to explain on here so if you not in a hurry, stick around. That would be a helpful video and thanks for the suggestion. I love car audio and the stinger is amazing for it, 150 amp alternator and the battery is right by the amp and it’s a hatch! Perfect combo for a flex monster!!! The 2 12’s are overkill tbh, the Sundown X8 tuned to 34HZ is sick! Smashes lows
