I am very satisfied that I opted for the Kia Stinger Premium. 255 hp is totally adequate for my needs. The fuel mileage is excellent! I average about 29mpg. Wish the fuel tank was a bit larger (like the Optima). The car is loaded with so many technical marvels that it took weeks of ownership to discover and appreciate all of them. And the best part, I paid only $33,600 out the door. That is incredible value!

Like many of the reviews on here, I went from driving German Luxury cars for the last 20 years to.....it's hard for me to say it....KIA! Obviously a very very special Kia. For those who do not know, it was designed and tuned by Germans, the ex chief engineer for M division-BMW, and Audi A7 designer. Needless to say, those 2 made a beautiful baby. There are more than enough articles written on how great this car is, but just be prepared, if you're coming out of a German car, the dealer experience, maintenance, service will be very different than what you're used to. It all came together, when I was buying the stinger, and my lovely salesman offered me coffee from the coffee bar, and it was Dunkin coffee- no judgment, in contrast to my BMW dealership which had a starbucks inside of it. And yes, every day I get up excited to drive my stinger.

Bought my 2018 Stinger with 9 miles on the odometer last year. It's stayed in the shop more than on the road. I've had nothing but problems out of it. Before reaching 1300 miles on the odometer the entire fueling system went out. The dealership had my car for almost 2 months because they didn't have a tech that knew how to work on it so they had to bring someone in from the factory, order parts and still couldn't figure it out. Mind you I'm still making my payments on time without having my car and was told Kia doesn't offer courtesy vehicles. Finally got my car back and had a flat rear tire. Of course no one has the tires in stock so I wait another week. Dealership ordered wrong tire so I'm stuck for an additional week with no car. Still making payments...I get my car back. 2 weeks later another flat tire! Gotta love those low profile! A month passes and there's a recall. Not 1 but 3! Take it back and there goes another week without my car. Another month passes and the low tire pressure sensor comes on. Had my car towed because there was nothing wrong with the pressure. Just didn't want to chance it. Seems it was a faulty sensor. Replaced it. Now all of the paint is coming off the strips on top of the car and rust is appearing on the back passenger chrome pieces and passenger back quarter panel!!! Took it to the dealer once again just to be told the whole car has to be repainted and new parts ordered. Rest assured people, I bought the LEMON! This car is going to make me lose my religion! I've asked for Kia to buy it back and release me from the responsibility. I'm waiting on a response now...so we'll see. Good luck with your Stingers! They're beautiful cars but it's not worth the hassle.

Not only will this car blow the doors off of almost anything but it's sleek, stylish, comfortable and is a head turner. I added aftermarket front and rear spoilers, canards and diffuser in the rear. I replaced the Kia badges with the Korean badges that are a stylized "E". Guess what? Nobody knows what it is, they ask me if it cost $100,000. I'm not afraid to tell them it's a Kia but I like to keep them guessing. Pull into a convenience store and people will start stopping and staring. It's a beautifully designed and crafted car. I've owned a bunch of cars but never one that performs as good as it looks, like this one does.
