The guy who they were working with whose profession is to make commercials said "instead of saying it's a great car but they ruined it by putting a diesel, you should rather say they improve the diesel by putting it in a Scirocco". This is the attitude we should have towards this car. We should be saying they improved Kia by making this car and not they ruined a great car by putting a Kia badge.

[@phanthomboy3]

A month ago I almost bought the Stinger but went with another older cheaper option to save money. Really making me regret it, but thankfully I don’t expect to keep my car for over a two years so let’s see what Kia does with it. If not, pull a Doug and get a 2020 in a few years.

I've had my 2019 Kia Stinger (Base model) since it came out. It's been such an awesome experience, that after my 3 year lease ended, I decided to purchase it. At 40k miles, it still drives like its new, still is fun to whip around, and still looks great 4 years later. Kia as a brand has come such a long way and if you are considering a stinger (new or used), I highly recommend you get one. Great car.

I actually work in sales at a Kia dealership. Before I got the job, I (like many others) thought Kia was just Hyundai's cute lil brother that made the Soul. However, since I started working for Kia, I've absolutely fallen in love with the brand! It's not just the Stinger, the redesign of their flagship SUVs in the Sportage and Sorento combined with the introduction of the Telluride, and even their new, more compact vehicles like the Seltos and Niro have done a complete 180 for the brand. I'm a Ford guy for now, but I know I won't be for much longer. As soon as I have the money, I'm buying a Kia (likely a Stinger!)

[@pcgt2003]

I love my Stinger and when I went shopping the Kia badge was a plus and not a minus for me. I like the relative anonymity this car brings. Most enthusiasts know what this car is capable. In Canada they were a hell of a deal too (similar pricing to a relatively basic 330i or C Class) and the engineers tuned the car really well. The handling is confidence inspiring but without a punishing ride. With winter tires and all wheel drive, this car is easily the best car I have driven in the snow. The practicality of the hatch should not be underestimated. My fiancee works at a Permanent Supportive Housing building and we get coffee supplies for her tenants. When we go to Costco it raises eyebrows when we load flatbeds of coffee, creamer and sugar into the hatch. Almost fit a BBQ in there too but the ceiling was a couple of inches too low.

[@pcgt2003]

J m176 I haven’t driven a Charger GT but I have rented a normal Charger before. Based on the rental experience I think the Charger feels a lot bigger and less nimble. The steering for the Stinger feels much though this is really comparing apples to oranges since the GT probably has summer tires where as my rental does not. I picked the Stinger because I wanted AWD and more practicality. In Canada, any Charger with the v8 is also more expensive.

[@thoraven2398]

@@oinkoink2843 Certainly entitled to your opinion and our standards could be different and that's ok. However, as the owner of a 2018 GT2 the quality inside the car is far from bad. The materials feel great, are comfortable, and have nice features like cooled seats, heated steering wheel, memory seats and steering wheel that are not a standard on many cars (to be fair, cooled seats aren't standard on a stinger either). Also, while i understand the comparison to Mercedes or BMV, you cant really compare the price. When you compare the specs and available technology for what you get in a Kia you would be spending much more if both purchased new. Doug said in his original video a similar car with a more prestigious logo would start with a "7" and i have found that to be accurate as well. This is especially true if you aren't buying the newest model year as these cars can be had from anywhere between 35k and 42k with the top end being 2019 models. The comfort and performance you get out of these cars if you aren't trying to have a 700-800 car payment or keep up with the joneses is awesome.
