[@Gabriron01]

Great content! Keep it up! Your voice is soothing and informative. Btw, do you memorize all the specs beforehand?

[@DriveOnReviews]

Yes I do sometimes I have to double check to make sure I’m saying it correctly and thank you for complement Appreciate that

[@fffwe3876]

KIA is trying so hard to getting rid of stingers before 400Z come out. Only Fool would buy those.

[@matthewswope87]

People like me just can't go buy the z they're rwd cars I live in Pennsylvania on top of a mountain winter is like 6.5 months here. Sooooo the next best thing is the stinger

[@Andyhhhsss]

Very good review for me and I will do the test drive tomorrow

[@SilentKnight43]

Great review! Love your driving reactions. Wife and I are pickin' up a 2022 this Monday in the new ascot green.

[@DriveOnReviews]

That green looks so lovely honestly great color and thanks for the feedback

Those rims are on fire .....dayyymn...... yee yee yee ...... my KIA

[@zunairmushtaq5888]

What an excellent video. Quick question. Does it also offer wireless apple car play or do you always have to plug it?

[@DriveOnReviews]

Great question I’m not sure I plug my phone into the USB but I want to say that it does

[@jamesdep8128]

Great video review. Excellent detail. Thank you

[@khoaphan8490]

That rear turn signal does not look LED at all, it blinks too slowly. Seems like the GT2 does have LED rear turn signals though, can you confirm?

[@DriveOnReviews]

Yeah sure I’ll film at GT2 and I’ll let you know

[@dylantoussaintinnocent5920]

I see that the exhaust are bigger and more agressive and the interior has change a bit

[@DriveOnReviews]

Yes they are and the interior looks a little bit better

[@omaribawn777]

Hope they sell more of these despite the recalls. Great review as always bruv!! Keep going.

Thank you and hopefully they fixed the issue before

Nice review. I look forward to the review of the top of the range Stinger which has everything in it as standard. It is indeed super quick. There are videos of people doing 4.2 seconds in a stock Stinger 3.3 for the 0-60 MPH. I have pushed it on freeways here in Australia and it accelerates like a missile.

[@Tsand4]

Those would be my videos✋🏼 lol

[@stephenluxa1923]

@@Tsand4 Perhaps you should sell them to Kia so they know how fast these things really go.

[@michaelarostegui7018]

First, your laugh says a lot about the enjoyability of that engine lol. Few questions if you can answer. 1) did you test the speakers for the K5 and stinger? If so, did you notice a difference between the bose in the K5 vs Harman Kardon in the Stinger? 2) which seems more comfortable, K5 or Stinger?

[@DriveOnReviews]

Thanks for noticing and yes the Bose speakers sounds better To me honestly and they both feel comfortable but I would say the K5 would be better cause it’s lighter compared to the stinger

[@NoOneKnown512]

Going to look at one, just wondering how is the reliability as a daily driver?

[@abz1325]

Are the American 2022 GT day running lights different to the Australian ones? These ones are newer than the previous, look nicer too

[@AlainHubert]

The rear turn signal is definitely NOT an LED but regular light bulb.

[@alvaromacedo2622]

Thanks for the video. Can you test drive the Stinger Awd version if you get a chance?

[@DriveOnReviews]

Yes I would once the dealership gets more in stock

[@AlexBAlixir98]

Darius, good review Man. The Stinger looks awesome. I’m definitely like this car. Kia stepped it up inside and out as well.

[@DriveOnReviews]

Yeah they did a great job with all there vehicles honestly and it has very good performance

@@DriveOnReviews much appreciated, GT1 out my league but definitely got that improved base model GT-Line at top of my list

[@marcustaylor3225]

The GT2 package does offer a top down view and cooled seats...also a different/better gear shift

[@justinfontaine5539]

I prefer the shifter on the GT1 as you can row through the gears using the shifter or the paddles and it will hold manual mode better.

[@blacklyfe5543]

Not everyone can afford it though

[@aritruths1452]

Definitely a nice refresh, love it. Great Review!

[@DriveOnReviews]

Unfortunately when I had it in the sport nothing showed that it had adaptive dampers maybe on the GT2

[@aritruths1452]

@@DriveOnReviews yes GT2 have the dampers with the cool seats, heads up, nappa leather, Harmon Kardon and power trunk. Sad they took the cool seats and Harmon Kardon out the GT1 for 2022 as the 21 model has it. All just a con to make you spend more. They realize the GT1 was selling more than the GT2, so now they force you to get it because they know everyone wants those options.

[@DriveOnReviews]

Yeah I see now if someone wants a GT1 package with the cool seats they should look at a 2021 model lol

[@nttniklause7655]

So annoying that there's all these different models between countries. Stinger gt gt1 gt2, Stinger 2022 in 2021??? All I can see is that the 22 model is the 21 model in Australia? And that gear shifter 🤮🤮

[@stephenluxa1923]

Daniel, Here in Australia, there is not a lot of difference between last year's model and this year's model. I bought mine last year and it is a 2020 model and the new ones will be 2021. Not sure why it is being called a 2022 in the States. The top of the range GT here in Oz has everything as standard including the Audi like gear shifter. I actually don't mind the gear shifter in the video as it is supposed to be like an F16 throttle which goes well with the air conditioning vents on the dashboard giving it a cockpit like appearance. I wish they had put fog lights as standard on the Stinger.

[@justinfontaine5539]

GT1 package comes with less goodies this time around

[@DriveOnReviews]

You are correct
