Had this car for 3 months now and I have no complaints. I like the comfort of the drivers seat the heads up display is great. You now your speed, which when driving this car you need to keep track, and with the lane assist you always know when you get distracted. It’s fast and yet doesn’t get the attention from the police. People who had look at, driven or read car magazines knows this car and how it performs. Couldn’t be happier.

Nice Drive But Watch The Rattle

The ride for the GT Line is great! For the money both seats should be automatic! The biggest issue is the trunk rattles at low speeds. The issue is known for the Stinger model (google it). I brought mine in - the issue was not corrected- will be going back.

I've had the '20 Stinger GT-2 in ceramic silver for about 7 months now. Can't say enough about the car. Exterior styling is a total head turner -- I can't count how many times I've been stopped by people to tell me how beautiful the car is (it's a little strange how often it happens). Overall, the interior is very nice, the finishes are nice, but I wouldn't call luxury, maybe entry level luxury. The seats are excellent -- firm and comfortable and the headrest is the best headrest ever (I'm 5'9" 160 lbs). The stock stereo system is amazing -- I love cruising while listening to the awesome sounds! Lots of tech that I don't feel like listing... The car is pretty fast and super fun to drive(that 365hp V-6 Twin Turbo). Oh yeah, the car is a hatchback plus the back seats fold down, so there's actually a lot of good storage space(even without folding the seats down). I've had no problems and If I do, it comes with the best warranty in the industry. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Stinger! Go get you a Kia Stinger GT!!!

Awesome Stylish Car

I love the looks, it's super fast, comfortable, very unique and turns a lot of heads. Definitely better than some of the competitors as far as performance. However, for a $43000 car, no Navigation or sunroof, premium sound is a little turn off. Audi, BMW, Mercedes have those options for the same price. Again it is a very nice looking car but lacks of some luxury for the money. KIA.... I love the Stinger just add some standard gadgets to make it more attractive to the consumer.

This car is so eye-catching, I can’t help but stare at it sitting in my garage. It has lots of comfort and performance. Build quality could be better. Cheap plastics are used in many places, but overall the cabin feels sturdy. The entire car changes as soon as you put it in sports mode. I have the 2022, so the car gets louder and a lot more peppy in sports mode. Comfort makes the car drive amazing and comfortably. All around this is the perfect practical sports sedan that is amazing for someone that wants practicality and fun.

If your looking for a gas saving family car stop now because this is not the car for you. This car is for the crowd that does not car about gas mileage. If you want to go for a long cruise this car has the comforts and when you want to put the power down it goes and I mean it goes. I personally own a base GT and I love it thought about getting a GT1 but I didn't want to pay 7k more for the 15 speaker sound system, but the 9 speaker is just fine. Also this is my second Kia product and you can't beat their Warranty. I'm a 6'3 250lbs and I can sit behind myself in this car. The only thing that's awkward is trying to get out the vehicle without putting creases in the leather seats.

Never thought I’d be a Kia owner. It forced me to reckon with badge snobbery. Awesome power, great fit and finishes, interior room, and hatch back. My only critique would be to have a bigger gas tank. This car beat out this list: Camry, Avalon, Altima, maxima, es350, gs350, q50, bmw 4 grand coup, s5/a5. Happy shopping y’all! I’m sure you’ll find a car you love too

Only Buy A Stinger If

Only Buy A Stinger If: You love embarrassing your Acuras/v6 Dodge Chargers/Challengers, GLI's by beating them in a "Kia" Love to have people ask you when pumping gas or at a store, what kind of car is that Want a car that can do launch control while carrying your bike in its trunk Than this Stinger is for you. I have had my 21 GT Line AWD for four months and absolutely smile ear to ear driving it. It takes backroads and corners pretty well. Pros: I get stopped at gas stations, parking lots, red lights asking what is that? Or people just loving the style of the Stinger. It makes me proud I am paying payments on something I love. This thing drives very nice and have plenty of pickup. I could've got a GT but know a GT is not good for my driving record. I have the sun/sound package and It is extremely loud. I can't tolerate the volume no more than 3/4 of the way up. Cons: Coming from a Nissan Altima, this thing sucks gas more like a V6. The biggest pain is using 91 or better octane. I tried to use 87 and it seem like it started sucking gas like a V8. Attention seeker- This thing sticks out in normal traffic and it makes it worse because I have the Micro Blue color (Bright Blue color) Height- I am 6'1 with long legs. I got used to it but I have to duck due to its roof design

Unbelievable that this much car, with this much practicality is in a Kia! People are sleeping on this sedan JUST because its a Kia! I've looked at comparable Mercedes and BMW. This car has shattered, by performance and value the others. Not even the staunchest car enthusiasts would be disappointed in this beauty of everyday driving. Check it out, its amazing. (Twin turbo G2 line) You won't be disappointed on bit, you'll start looking at Kia as a viable option in performance cars over the other well known luxury brands. Test drive one, get one, enjoy the drive.

The vehicle is a very nice and beautiful car overall. However, I feel for the price their asking for the stinger isn’t worth it. Overall, my main upset was 2 things; driver seat is very tight and compact and wasn’t comfortable nor felt safe driving when my left arm is pressed against the window and/ window buttons, and secondly theres certain parts of the interiors that are made of plastic. For the name and brand Kia, I personally wouldn’t spend that much for the vehicle.
