My Week with the Kia Stinger GT AWD!

[@high_altitudemotorsports1788]

I'm mildly obsessed with these cars.

[@anwarmediagroup3171]

Mildly is an understatement lol

[@donbaird3826]

2020 stingergt2 3.3 tt panthera metal ♥️

[@XZAKLY99]

I’ve been drooling over this car for so long. I saw one today in that nice gray color I nearly shit myself.

[@differenttigers]

My interest in the Stinger went from 0-100 real quick. Thanks for the great video!

[@khronin]

I got an AWD 2020 GT 2 weeks ago.Fantastic car--chose it over others because of the warranty.It also tops out at 167 which is one of the fastest cars you can buy under 60k.Also the V6 engine is so strong that You only need to use the turbos on passing or testing the power.The AWD pulls off the line like a gunshot.

[@OnlyTheFinest125]

Try the "custom" mode Awd-comfort and transmission in sport. And everything else use your preference put it pulls even harder

[@klasseact6663]

My buddy loves his, not the recall on his paint so much (yellow) but KIA is all over that! Repainting all metal surfaces, paying for the rental and $5K for the inconvience...and if your not happy with the repaint, they'll give you another Stinger GT of a different color, that's making things right and then some IMO! These cars really stand out on the road! I love the Guilia Quadrifoglio for sure but coming off of an extra $38k makes you have to really think, these things are freight trains =========

[@vz6235]

I'd take a Q50S Redsport 400

[@IReahpZz]

Vlad Zak ever driven one? My q60rs sucks compared to this in daily driving lol

[@chitterlingsrtasty]

Of I didn’t have a manual Chevy ss/Holden commodore ssv redline I’d get one.

[@pkarandi]

@@vz6235 I test drove both. Last month I brought home my Stinger! I was VERY disappointed by the red sport's drive quality. It was not even close

[@Evan-memo]

Klasse Act no other companies would do what you said like Benz bmw and all those companies would turn you down would never offer you what you mentioned Kia and Huyndai have best warranty and best customer service and I think they honour their warranty and not only that they go above the limit means they will do things not even in warranty like you just mentioned to make their customers happy

[@VEDEMRACING99]

Kia and Hyundai are really bringing up their quality! Great review

[@MeynMotorGroup]

People love to hate it but every person in the driver seat can't help but love it haha great review sir. Best way to sell a Kia or understand the stinger is def to drive it

[@geo5106]

really? who hates it? I've never heard a bad comment about it

[@PatrickLino]

FACTZ

[@dancarlos1216]

We have over 7,000 miles on our GT2 awd. The awd option is easily worth two grand if you want all four wheels powered due to the torque vectoring with brakes and also power. It’s a baby GTR sedan.

[@Bobbylite1995]

I’ve driven one and it’s pretty fun I didn’t expect it from a KIA but just shows how far they have come

[@MuscleAKAOzzy]

Took it for a test drive few days ago and brought it back on empty ......new brake pads needed#$$%&#$

[@mholmes9262]

Former BMW f30 335i M sport...Huge fan of the i-6, love the styling, feel etc. But a test drive of the BMW 340i with MPPK and then the Stinger GT2, the Stinger was the one I woke up thinking about the next morning.

Nice review! I have a GT w/ AWD and I absolutely love it. Was very satisfied with the Kia brand after leasing 2 Optimas so going for the Stinger was a no brained. I can’t tell you how many strangers have come up to me and strike up a conversation about it, wondering what it is and what I thought. Kia has really done something.

[@bikes7777]

Chris Trudeau leasing is stupid financially.

[@mtor92]

bikephil nobody asked if it was :)

[@realbeetlejuice]

bikephil is right

[@joeljeffrey9139]

Leasing ain't stupid if, A. you got the money and B. Why would finance a car for 2 - 3 years to then hop into another before you pay it off? Rolling over negative equity is whats dumb.

[@BFisherMKE]

I think I read somewhere that these are doing very well and that most people buy the fully loaded ones over the base. Love this car, so sharp. My lease is up in a year and its going to be a tough choice between this and the new G70.

[@colinp7983]

Bought my new 2019 GT2 RWD because of this review. So far VERY happy with my decision. Got it for 43,500. Dealers are willing to go well below MSRP on these!

[@chitterlingsrtasty]

Must resist!

[@JoseMendoza-gq1bx]

Just got the 2019 GT2 AWD for $42500, my negotiation power is off the charts. Grats btw! This thing is a beast

[@chrisbeer9425]

Just got one yesterday and I am extremely impressed with this vehicle it has everything I was looking for in a vehicle

[@z32PureHardDance]

I test drove a GT2 RWD over the weekend as I'm looking for a sport sedan as my next purchase. I'm coming from a 1992 nissan 300zx twin turbo with 360whp/350tq. The GT2 I drove went above and beyond what I was expecting, I INSTANTLY fell in love when the salesman pulled up with the GT2, and after hopping in and turning it on.. WOW the comfort, the power, the drivability, the technology.. I cant stop watching reviews and videos on this beautiful car. Next weekend I will be test driving the 2019 Infiniti q50.

[@Foregrlz]

What did you end up buying?

[@TwinkYyxD]

What did u like more im thinking of these 2 cars too

[@john5516]

What did you end getting? Thinking about the same two cars. Thx

[@yourmanzach2307]

The more you look at this car you realize how amazinv it looks and youll be attracting alot of attention along with a lot of haters. Ill take it!

[@MikeMUFC91]

Watching review after review on the Stinger because I'm interested in one and everybody has praised them. Only furthers my obsession! Lol

[@jj9751]

Have you test driven one? It’s freaking surreal.

[@jimmyjohnson7883]

Mr. Maran, I have a suggestion. You should ad the specs of the car such as engine type, hp, weight, 1/4 mile, msrp in the description below. Also, in a box in your video.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

I appreciate the suggestion. I don't like to clutter up the description box too much but if more people would like to see this I can incorporate it in future videos. In my regular Review videos I always say all the specs after I do my acceleration. If you're curious on all the specs of the Stinger, you can hear them in my full review video I did last fall. It's linked at the end of this video.

[@chestophercolumbo4561]

I think something along the lines of what Alex on Autos does

[@ALEX-sh3tx]

Matt Maran Motoring love the reviews

[@Suction_]

Friend of mine got one. GT1 - road tripped it ~200 miles and it was extremely comfy. Got mid 20s for mileage. I didn't drive it, but it really feels pretty planted and definitely put together well. I'm not to keen on spending $50k on a KIA, but if I had the cash, I would definitely consider.

[@raywindhelm6749]

everyone i watched saying its a good car and kia has improved a lot

[@DucatiDiaries]

Ah. This is what I've been waiting for! That actually sounds like a v8. So glad we're getting more competition to keep the Ford's/Chevy's, etc. on their toes. Looks like a very nice car. ATTENTION KIA: FREE CONSUMER ADVICE: REMOVE ALL "KIA" BADGES AND REPLACE THEM WITH JUST "STINGER."

[@mowglig9382]

That’s what I did. Swapped the kia badges with gt badges everywhere. Steering wheel, alll four rims front badge. Just stinger gt in the back

[@selfproclaimednobody4614]

Setting these in person, even better! The wheel and tire combo looks really sexy in the car you're testing! Kia knocked it out of the park. FYI, those numbers for horsepower and torque are underrated! Those numbers are closer to the wheels and over 400lbs torque.

[@justinfontaine5539]

Love that this car is compared with Alpha Romero and all the Germans. It's incredible. It's faster off the line than my manual C7 Corvette. Well done KIA

[@koreanational]

Thank you for another wonderful review. I just bought a GT2 RWD in march.... it has been mind blowing EVERYDAY for me. AWD definitely should be even quicker off the line, though may be not ultimately faster overall. love your reviews, love and passion can be felt one every one of your vids bro.

[@BrandoDrum]

People complain about the body roll but it's wild how well setup these cars are for really tight twisty mountain roads. Took my 2019 to the NC mountains a year or so ago with my dad in his 2015 Carrera 4S (manual) and he literally couldn't keep up. Between the Stinger's superior low-end torque and torque vectoring AWD I was going through tight sections so much faster than he could muster without getting some scary oversteer. the 911 is just setup for a high-speed circuit and that's fine but translated to mostly a boring 2nd gear only experience in some of America's most amazing mountain roads. The Stinger however was more fun than even the 2015 Cayman S my dad traded for his 911...

[@merlindouglaslarsen1684]

11:54 I believe that the bolsters are leatherette, not leather or nappa leather. Some people dig their elbows into the seat to turn themselves while getting out (in?). It must be an unconscious maneuver. A Stinger owner I read about on Stingerforum.org. had his seat replaced and within two weeks the new bolster was showing wear in exactly the same place. The shifter in the GT1 is taller for a reason: it has a very handy, cool manual gate feature that keeps the transmission in manual mode; you can either shift by bumping and pulling the stick shift, or using the paddle shifters, easily switching back and forth between them as desired. I really like my manual gate! I have no desire to give that up for drive by wire in the GT2.

[@ContentinMesa]

The gt2 is Napa

[@BulletSpoung]

I absolutely love your review, absolutely.

[@lama6736]

Matt I’d be curious of your thoughts on the Stinger vs S5 sportback if you’ve gotten to drive one of those as well...keep up the great videos and content!

[@stevencorbo1220]

I've heard that happening in other turbocharged cars wear when you first start them up you got to take it nice and easy don't push them too quickly. Once they warm up then you can go and push them

[@christopherpayton6164]

I LOOOOOOVE MY STINGER!!!!!!!

[@gone547]

Seems e a big smile when you touch the accelerator comes as standard equipment.

[@mp8130]

Nice review Matt. If I was buying a car now it would be between the Mustang GT, Stinger GT, Giulia and M240i...can't decide on manual vs auto..been driving a manual WRX since 2005

[@rdrokitpower-rockblues]

Great review. Will be waiting on your review of the Genesis G70 when it arrives next month. Might be a step up in handling from the Stinger as it is a little smaller.

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

I love mine. So much room. I keep this trunk full of stuff, and it’s perfect. I also have a trailer hitch on it and pull a motorcycle trailer easy.

[@paulandrebeccak5680]

We love our Stinger GT2 AWD. Took it on a 1,500 mile road trip and it was so comfortable and quiet and got 29 mpg on the whole trip, including around town about 100 miles on throttle. Considered the Giulia but I'll take the 5% less edge for practicality and to be out of the shop ;) Our 124 Spider is for the super twisty roads!

[@jonathans4503]

Paul and Rebecca K did you have the AC on? Also which drive mode?

[@paulandrebeccak5680]

Jonathan S yes, a/c was on for well over half the trip, speeds between 60 - 78 in eco mode, except in the city ;)

[@jamessaliba5129]

Matt great review on the Awesome Kia Stinger, A proud new Stinger owner down under in Australia.

[@damienauto8350]

My Australian Stinger doesn't have ambient lighting but it does have the 360° parking cameras which totally solve the poor rear visibility and make parking in tight areas a piece of cake. Wireless phone charging is nice too though Apple Carplay and Android Auto only work via USB so wireless is kind of pointless.

[@matthewstevenson1415]

Hey Damien Auto I'm thinking of buying a Stinger GT what model did you buy?

[@everythingautomotiveeta5839]

I like them you touch on the stereo. To many of us that can absolutely play a factor when picking gets tight.

[@robd3061]

Great review, Matt! The Stinger is such a sharp car. I saw one driving the other day (in metallic red) and was shocked at how good it looked. It should sell very well.

[@michaellim4165]

Rob D I agree. Stinger looks the best in Chroma Red. It looks absolutely stunning in real life.

I guarantee, if this had a "Audi" or Bimmer badge.. People would not stop talking about it.. The fact that it has a "Kia" badge on the hood, some people just can't get over that., it's why you still hear the stupid comments.. "YEAH, BUT it's still a Kia " I have absolutely no 2nd thoughts forking over 55k to kia, more options and less time in the service department than the other German counterparts,, I have experienced with the SXL for the last 5 years, so that's why I have full confidence in Kia., no badge whoring here.. Excellent review

Go for the GT2 more up grades plus when you get yours use the auto hold once I’m at a complete stop never have to keep my foot on the brake when your ready to go hit the gas

[@Prad2007]

That's a pretty interesting car. How do you figure it compares in handling and performance to the Cadillac CTS V-Sport?

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Pretty similar actually, but the Stinger is a little flatter and more composed. The CTS V-Sport is a stellar handler too and before the Stinger and Alfa, it was near the top of my sport sedan list for best handlers.

[@Namebrannd]

How do you get the dealer to even let you keep the car for a week? I’d love to keep a Stinger for a week.

[@chestophercolumbo4561]

Hey Matt Great review, your smiles says it all, however once the G70 comes out it may supplant the Stinger on your short list!

[@Ezero8]

After watching your last weekly update, I'm surprised you've never reviewed a Lexus RC F. You need to get on that!

[@marshallhughes4514]

Nice review. I believe that the ambient lighting comes in two other colors white and a pale green.

[@skylarbcuda]

marshall hughes it has all the colors you normally see from LED ambient (red blue, green, purple, white, maybe orange?) and you can adjust the intensity

[@jefffenn5016]

Matt, you mentioned that this was the top 2 in 4 door handling cars. What about the 2011 Panamera Turbo you reviewed a few years ago. Do you think the stinger GT is better than the Panamera Turbo? Thanks!!

I would have gotten this color (Silky Silver) if Kia hadn't discontinued this color option. But i'm very happy with my Panthera Metal.

[@FR8Productions]

Hey Matt - We love your reviews here in Texas. Would you say for the money sub 45k this is the best Family capable 4 door sports sedan in both looks, crash test, fun etc? I def want a GT, but is there any other optionyou would say is a MUST?? is AWD a Must?

[@skylarbcuda]

FR8ZILLA PRODUCTIONS I have a GT2 RWD and I’d say unless you are like far north Texas you probably would have more fun in RWD. Handling seems lighter, and more fun. And is actually quicker in straight line, no wheel spin.

[@subaquagene608]

Matt, I am hooked on this car just as you are, but I live in the Northern climate so winter driving conditions are a way of life. How would rate this car for year round winter driving say compared to an Audi A6. Thanks very much Gene

[@kingofkiasthestinger9291]

It’s just a well put together car 👍🏽👍🏽

[@justinfontaine5539]

Unless you want to drift the thing the AWD is the way to go. More planted and rear biased so you get the best of both worlds..

[@frumpd63]

I leased a Ceramic Silver GT1 AWD w/ drivewise for three days / 250 miles before the deal fell apart over paint damage the dealer inflicted. I think it's a bit misleading that almost all reviewers are making blanket statements about the Stinger's performance based on the GT2 trim (LSD) with summer tires. My GT1's non-LSD rear end really got floaty / sloppy when you push it (no matter the drive mode) and the 18 inch all season's added insult to injury. It could have been the tires, but my car was also pretty unsteady when cruising at triple digit speeds. It was definitely fast as hell in a straight line and certainly looked the business, but the specific trim makes a big difference in how the Stinger drives.The fuel economy was also truly horrible, no matter the mode and the dealer treated me like I was leasing a Soul. I ended up in a Giulia Ti Sport instead, and it's worked out far better for my needs, though my previous vehicle being a MK7 could have something to do with it.

[@marlerusticgeek0075]

I've never driven the base Stinger 4 cylinder so I can't say regarding those. A base Stinger GT is still cheaper than the base Alfa though and like I say in the video, I'd pick the Stinger GT.

[@MrRyanS1983]

M1MyRifle the base Stinger is the better car. Whether it’s the 2.0 or 3.3 Stinger as Matt said both cheaper and more fun. While more fun to me anyway. I tried them all and bought the 2.0 Stinger. It’s just a matter of what trim level you want. The Alfa has reliability issues, poor dealership network, and poorly designed infotainment. It’s also better than BMW 430i and 440i as far as price and power.

Matt, how would you compare this to the ATS-V sedan you test drove?

[@cindykeselowski899]

Matt, would you recommend RWD or AWD for a Stinger GT owner in Arizona?

[@MattMaranMotoring]

I'd definitely go RWD if you're in Arizona unless you plan to travel to snowy places in it.

Thanks Matt, I am now the proud owner of a RWD 2019 Stinger GT1 in ceramic silver. Wanted red interior but settled for black. The RWD offers plenty of traction and for $2000 less. And in Phoenix the AWD isn't necessary. The only thing I plan to do is change out the factory exhaust which is a little lame. Keep up the good work!
