    Where do you see Stinger resale values in 2-3 years?

    I'm sure the market will balance itself out one the incentives start to dry up. I think it's impossible to tell right now how the market will respond to this car, hopefully favorably. Id be happy with 55 percent value at 3 years for my sunset yellow limited edition GT. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL...

    When will you perform the first oil change?

    If the 3.3T holds 9 quarts, then how much does the oil pan hold for changing? I have a trip this weekend and I'm thinking of doing my own oil change as I used to on my A5. I always buy mobile 1, just have to source the filter for it. My A5 took a 7 qt oil change, are our cars at that point as...

    3500 Mile Service

    I'll take care of it either and I get back or where I'm going. No one seems to be and to support me before the trip, too short notice. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    3500 Mile Service

    How many have actually performed this service? I'm due for it this week, but I have a trip to go on starting Friday for the next three weeks and that'll put me to about 4500 miles. It's synthetic so it should hold it until 5k, right? How imperative is it that the 3500 mile service is completed...

    2.0L Stinger Premium vs base Stinger GT, which would you choose?

    While I don't think base GT resale will be that great, I think it'll fair about as well as a premium will. People are buying more GTs than they are 2.0T versions. I think the percentage was 45 - 55 percent as per another thread. (Or maybe it was the other way around). Either way, the stinger...

    Kia Stinger Purchase/Lease Cheat Sheet - MFs & APRs

    Doesn't sound right. I got 4k lease cash on a base GT with a money factor of .0022 on my lease. Is it a GT2? Sounds like the lease offer was for a GT2. .00248 is definitely high. I'd go look for a competing quote just to compare. Always shop around. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    2.0L Stinger Premium vs base Stinger GT, which would you choose?

    Went with a base GT over a Stinger Premium. I don't regret the decision, I test drove both (in AWD) and decided I wanted the performance. The Base GT comes better equipped than the base Stinger. In my mind, the things I lost out in that I notice are the 8-inch navigation UVO, the Harmon Kardon...

    Kia Stinger Laser Puddle Lights

    Hmm, my Audi required no extra wiring for the lights. I'll keep an eye out for any aftermarket stuff. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Kia Stinger Laser Puddle Lights

    Anyone know of aftermarket puddle led/laser lights for the Stinger? I had some Wind and Fire ones for my Audi and loved them. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Engine auto start/stop issues

    Makes sense, I wasn't aware of the parameters of the system we're. I've been meaning to look at the manual lately, I'm sure I'll learn a few things. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Engine auto start/stop issues

    Over the past few weeks I've noticed that the engine auto start/stop feature has been acting... Strangely... It's been pretty inconsistent with functionality in the different driving modes. I've noticed that in eco and comfort the feature will not be active on initial startup and a cold engine...

    Would you purchase a Stinger GT with a manual?

    Guess I'm the only one here who would have liked a manual option.... Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Looking for a good Lease deal

    Isettled for yellow because I couldn't get the same deal on non-inventory cars. I couldn't find any base GTs in any other color and couldn't wait. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Looking for a good Lease deal

    I got it about two weeks ago. That deal sounds about right. Remember, my lease is for 48 months. When I was quoted 36 months, the best they were willing to do was 532 a month. You're about a 700 dollar difference in price from mine, makes sense, I was upside down 500... Sounds like your dealer...

    I was upside down 500 dollars on my trade. They wouldn't give me anything more for my trade. Seemed a little silly to me. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Kia Stinger Purchase/Lease Cheat Sheet - MFs & APRs

    Not sure if you can negotiate lower MF and retain the lease incentives? The lease cash chart had the lease cash set at specific money factors. For example, I got 4k with a money factor of .0022. not great, but not the worst I've seen, either (Audi leases their S5s a MF of .0029 or higher)...

    Looking for a good Lease deal

    I ended up paying around 34k after lease incentives, total lease price was around 36.8k, 48 month lease, 495 a month. The car is a Sunset yellow GT. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    How long will the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 last?

    They're great tires, but their treadwear is super low, I would be surprised if anyone got more than 30k out of them. I don't think I'll be getting another set of Pilot Sports for my GT. I'll be doing around for something with much higher treadwear. I don't really do the type of driving to...

    Do you wave at other Stinger drivers?

    Just drove from Maryland to New York for 4 days. Didn't see a single Stinger. I know they're out there, though. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
