      @@Mike3464hj What I tell people is this.
      If you need the space to carry passengers or cargo, go with the Kia Stinger.
      If you're like me, I purchased my Genesis G70 for me.
      I have other vehicles if I need to carry passengers or cargo.
      That's how you choose, by what your needs are.

      I did exactly the same.
      I had Hyundai Azera.
      Very beautiful car. Tremendous rear space.
      For all 7 years I had it, I had passenger on the rear seat only 3-4 times for trip about 30 minutes.
      I traded it in for G70 3.3TT AWD Elite+Prestige.

    Only issue was warped rotors are 10k but Kia replaced all rotors, calipers and pads and have not had any issues since.
    It's my daily driver and after an exhaust update and intakes I think it's one of the best cars on the market for under $60k.

      Here in germany we can configure or buy an active exhaust for the car from Kia, it sounds way better than the puny stock exhaust. Bought a used 2018 Stinger this week, insanely good car and a great upgrade after my 2011 V6 Mustang.

      My GF had the same problem with her front rotors, you guys need to keep in mind it’s a heavy car and requires a lot of braking power and heat to stop it. She likes to brake later than she should, and In doing so it really heats up the rotors, and since it’s an auto you have to keep the brake depressed at lights thus causing the hot softer metal to squeeze in and causing rotor warpage. Any car will have this issue due to driving style, maybe carbon ceramic rotors would hold up better but I have no experience with them.
