Are you freaking kidding me?!

I can?t believe I got all this bad ass fun for 40K. Makes my BMW seem super weak. If you like nice speed, turns on a dime and stops on the edge of one. But one or I?ll beat you at the drag strip. Got new chip and tunned. Got 424 hp. Scary fun!!

Sleek Car with luxary

This vehicle handle great. The engine has 4 different setting to fit your driving preference. The car does sit low, but that just make driving more secure when driving. The car does have some blind spots, but with safety features it doesn't really matter.

This is a sleeper!

I didn't believe until I drove one how complete the Stinger is. It has style like the European cars and power like the muscle cars of old. The ride is refined and it has all the bells and whistles and more. The dash is not too complicated like some and this one is a dream to drive. Lots of safety features too.

Very fun, sexy car - great value and Kia warranty

If you?re looking for a fun car to drive that looks great has all bells and whistles and is a great comparative value, the Stinger is for you. I drove the Stinger, a BMW 400 series coupe, and an Audi 5 sport back and the Kia was the best car. Comfort in the interior. Power and then some. Bells and whistles including lots of safety features. And looks great! Same warranty as all Kia?s - 10 years/100,000 miles.

I am extremely satisfied and proud of my Stinger.

I absolutely love my new Stinger, and I've received more compliments than any vehicle that I ever had. If you like a sporty but roomy car, this is the bomb!!!

Nice car

Found the seats too hard after driving. No interior trunk release. Have to get out to open. Truck area rattles to much, because interior truck cover does not lock down when closed.

The stinger is a winner

I?ve owned Porsche , Audis, and BMWs. After owning the stinger, I?m wondering why I spent all that money. Oh well, maybe not the Porsche but definitely the other two. Fit And finish are exemplary and the car feels as solid as any German competitor
