I've had the ceramic silver / red interior GT2 since 2018 and have 22k miles on it. Only issue was warped rotors are 10k but Kia replaced all rotors, calipers and pads and have not had any issues since. It's my daily driver and after an exhaust update and intakes I think it's one of the best cars on the market for under $60k.

You got me. I had an extended test drive of one last Friday. So impressed I intend ordering one this Monday. I won't trade my Kia Sportage which I love, but the wife's Mazda 3 Gt 2.5 will be the one to go. She agrees and although just a passanger during the test drive, she is suitably impressed to the point of no argument. I've owned everything from a genuine 1969 L88 Corvette to BMWs, Mercs etc. And thought that my motoring enthusiast days were over and nothing could ever ring my bell again. How wrong was I. What an impressive well-rounded motorcar.

My GF had the same problem with her front rotors, you guys need to keep in mind it’s a heavy car and requires a lot of braking power and heat to stop it. She likes to brake later than she should, and In doing so it really heats up the rotors, and since it’s an auto you have to keep the brake depressed at lights thus causing the hot softer metal to squeeze in and causing rotor warpage. Any car will have this issue due to driving style, maybe carbon ceramic rotors would hold up better but I have no experience with them.

Owner of a 2018 GT1 in ceramic grey. I've never gotten so many compliments from random people at the parking lot, gas station, at my business. I was an Audi guy before having an A5 and S4, but the Stinger is my favorite by a huge margin. German luxury are money pits (transmission and oil consumption issues). Having a peace of mind with the reliability of a Korean made car is really priceless. I hope Kia makes a second generation but if not, then definitely G70 will be on my list. Hopefully by then Genesis will have a high performance trim with the G70 going head to head with M and AMG.

Fantastic car, Joe! I love it. I have two main issues with it, though. 1) That hideous reflector on the side rear. 2) That horrendous afterthought infotainment screen. Despite those two caveats, I could totally see myself driving one of these eventually. Not bad, Kia!

Tbh, I have a 2017 Accord V6 Touring. I got a Honda for its reliability. But over these last few years I’ve heard some great things about KIA especially this Stinger. The accord transmission does not have fast shifts, it sometimes shifts rough. I’m really tempted to make the switch give KIA a try. I test drove one and it felt really like a luxury sedan comparable to a Mercedes, bmw, Lexus. Great car

We should not forget that the design of the Stinger was developed by Peter Schreyer and Gregory Guillaume in Frankfurt am Main. Albert Biermann, who was deputy head of development at BMW M GmbH, was also involved in the development; since 2015 he has been head of development at the Hyundai Motor Group, to which Kia belongs.

Agreed, wish they never included those fake hood vents. Also, totally agree about the roof. Should have blacked it all out and pano. Changed the logos to the Korean market KIA E. Lastly, KIA has filed documents to change their logo...at last.:)

The Stinger has definitely got the goods (ie hardware) but I feel that KIA has incorporated several design cues that come off as extraneous at best like the side vents and the extended reflector strips on the tail lights. The capable engine and drive train, not to mention the more accessible sale price, I believe are enough to entice potential buyers
