If you go with a Stinger, I highly recommend the Eibach sway bars and Coil kits (both of which can be ordered and installed through Kia). About 2k total with labor and makes a significant difference in the handling of the car and given Kia does it, no warranty issues. Also the new coils lower the car about 1 1/4" which make it look even better.
@mmmmm48153 жыл бұрын
$2k for coils and sway bar? For a Kia??🤣🤣🤣 Might as well buy an entire aftermarket coilover system for that price, watch a KZbin video or two, and install it yourself, and still save $$! 🤣🤣 You Stinger owners really are very new to the aftermarket car world aren’t you LOL

@@NBABY-J for a Kia and only lowering springs and a sway bar? YES. 1. The lowering springs and sway bar, given from the factory as an “upgrade” will always be soft compared to aftermarket. 2. Springs and sway bars on Euro cars that are more expensive, will cost you around $500-$1000 total...and they will be better quality and more aggressive. 3. Springs and sway bars don’t void warranty on almost all makes of cars. To pay $2k for this shows the lack of experience he has, or whoever chooses this option, in the car enthusiast world.

Interesting that the new Sorento has a dual clutch and not the Stinger GT🧐

A dual clutch doesn't have to be better than an automatic

@@lorenzpfander7658 your right. The new M3 is a torque converter auto. And it’s pretty good. It’s just a little strange to see KIA develop a DCT for an SUV and not put it in the GT.

I have the 7spd DCT in my GT Sport, and while it's not bad or anything, downshifts are quick, it's super clunky in daily driving. Did the Sorrento get the revised 8spd wet DCT?

Very different story here in the US. The big news isn't the measly 3 hp upgrade in HP for the GT models but the massive improvements in the GT-Line with a new 2.5L turbo 4 (found in at least 7 KIA, Hyundai, and Genesis models including the K5 GT) that reduces the 0-60 mph time from about 6.5 seconds to 5.2 seconds. That puts it only about half a second slower than the GT models with the 3.3L engine with a huge savings in the price (around $40,000 fully loaded AWD). Meanwhile, the Genesis G70 cousin inexplicably retains the earlier 2.0L engine. Despite the universally positive reviews of the Stinger, sales have been disappointing in North America. KIA hopes (with good reason) that the base GT-Line with the new engine will energize those sales.

Couldn't have said it better. You can't improve on perfection. As an owner of the pre-refresh model, I also lament the changes to the back. Also wish Kia would have more color combinations.

The Launch Control doesn’t actually do anything in the AWD Stinger/G70 cars. It doesn’t build boost with Launch Control. In fact boost doesn’t build until almost 20 mph with Launch Control. You can use the Emergency brake to build boost but that probably isn’t good for the car.
