We bought a 2019 StingerGT2 AWD 3.3L last April - and it never fails to put a grin on my 57yr old face. Stock, no mods...no intentions of modding (too old for that, lol). I've owned a lot of vehicles over the years and hands-down the Stinger is the cream of the crop.
Very nice! The Stinger is an amazing car and wears a lot of hats. 3.3TT has plenty of power the way it is, I agree - nice choice 👍
Before the Kia what was your best car Sr?
@@oscarguevara5556 best car was a 2017 Lexus GS350 F sport I would say. Fastest, FBO IS350 w tune. Stinger is faster though bc they were rear wheel drive
Never to old sir never to old.
@@oscarguevara5556 Saying which is best is kind've difficult. Favorite was a '79 Ford f100 stepside custom pickup I had in the 80s. Best car as far as reliability/design/looks/etc. would've been the 2011 Optima EX I traded for the Stinger.
Real car enthusiast appreciate all cars, I like German inline 6, American v8, and Jdm/kdm, I’m currently driving a accord 2.0t but hunting for a stinger gt2
never been happier than with my gt2. I came from a 2004 S2000 and a 2011 Civic Si. Good luck!
@@Nargaroth I used to own an AP2 too! I just ordered a 2018 gt2 in white on vroom, 39k with 20k miles! Wish I bought one when car market wasn’t as crazy
can't agree more!
Right, every car can be made cool, but every car can also be made rice lol
No
I'm extremely happy with my Stinger GTS. It's the best car I've ever owned
GTS is amazing 🤩 I believe they put a LSD in those here in the states. I’m jelly 😎
@Mark Munn 👊👊😎
More of this! 🤜🏾🤛🏾 Glad to see a BMW driver giving the Stinger a test drive. The whole “for a Kia” backhanded compliment a lot of reviewers spit out, is old. Just sit in a Kia of the last 5 years alone, and that will show Kia’s ambitious moves to change the perception of yesteryear.
Yeah this is great! That was the first time we ever met up and hung out. I ran in to Zo when I was shooting some b role on my car with with my girl a couple months ago and we were finally able to meet up. So this is a genuine opinion from another enthusiast plus I got to drive a G80! Great day 👊
It's all for show. As if a BMW driver would trade that sweet gear box in the M3 for this Korean plastic crap lol .
@@DEVILTAZ35 never mentioned a trade , that would not be logical. We are going to trade cars for a day though, will make a sick vid. I may end up with a GT-R next.
@@DEVILTAZ35 There u are. I knew u were lurking and hate watching 😒
@@DEVILTAZ35 It's not a crap.
I guess I'm the old dude in the room.
April 2019, I purchased a 2019 Genesis G70 3.3.T.
As the old dude✌, my Genesis G70 is my personal vehicle. I have an SUV and a large sedan if I need to carry passengers or cargo.
Currently I have over 69K miles on my G70. So far, no problems. Only scheduled maintenance and replace a set Michelin Pilot Sport 4.
Comfort and sport mode are as different as night and day.
My kids are adults, so I didn't need the trunk space or rear passenger space .
I love both Korean vehicles! Keep the videos coming. I enjoy watching young people in their Kia Stinger Gt!
Thank you! I still want to drive the G70 and make a vid on it. You are 100% right about the sport mode with these platforms, she really wakes up!
Got to spend a lot of time in a 2019 GT stinger, and a 2016 M4 and I gotta say I liked the Kia more. The BMW was fun as hell obviously, but they’re definitely more performance oriented and you feel it in the ride 😂 The Kia was more comfortable, practical, draws less attention, and the turbo spool/blowoff sound perfect. They’re also also unique and a lot of people have no idea they even exist
Every time I look at my stinger it puts a smile on my face.
It’s been a great car!
Albert Biermann was the M division chief engineer for over 15 years. The stinger Gt and the N line at Hyundai is his produce! Hyundai took him in 2015.
Took him for a reason, look where they are now 😉
Not forget the other good engineers from European premium brands.
👍Hyundai 👍
Om
@@felixrubert3907 the guy that designed the Genesis GV70 is the same guy that designed the Bently SUV they're almost identical and they're all part of the family of Genesis Hyundai Kia.
@@artistnyc123 SangYup Lee also designed the GV80. The GV80 looks soo much better out of the bunch. There is always something Off / Awkward with modern Bentleys.
nice, I love seeing Stinger GT appreciation. I was so happy when I took delivery of mine in late August. driving it is just such a joy and its just a nice place to be.
It’s my favorite car to date, it gets a lot of love and attention as I’m sure you know! 👊
I like my 2021 GT1 so much, I'm leaving it stock. Mod your hearts out young people, lol!
It’s a beautiful car stock too!
It’s a very great inspiration seeing two intelligible intelligent fine young men get along very positively. Thanks guys, that’s so much more important than all the cars in the world.
💯💯💯 yes, he has become a good friend of mine, great dude!
Good videos man! Keep 'em coming!
We just put two Stingers in our garage. Mine's the '22 Ascot Green GT2 and my wife's is the '22 Ceramic Silver GT2 Scorpion. We LOVE how the garage looks now! Starting the mods on mine. Have CAIs in with exhaust, FMIC, OCC, and JB4/plugs on the way. Your vids are the reason I'm going MBRP.
Great choice of mods and exhaust, the MBRP will blow you away in person. I try to capture it the best I can, but it’s much deeper in person and perfect for daily. I got some really good stuff coming up on the horizon.
You should of gotten a stinger and a genesis g70 just to switch it up
@@andrez1142 That would have been very cool. We just love the styling of the Stinger more than the Genesis. More aggressive and tougher-looking.
@@andrez1142 I need to get a G70 on the channel and drive it. I think it would be a cool comparison since I’m so use to my car now.
@@twn2rbo turo
i love this video ! nothing better than two enthusiasts coming together
I have a Kia stinger GT1, I absolutely fell in love with it the AWD the way it handles the steep turns heaven, the sound system amazing, all around sexy car!!
Agree! 👊
When these cars started to make waves ex head of Audi (the designer) and ex head of BMW performance Albert biermann took the helm these cars are on another level
💯💯
i bet the look on his face when you attempted to show him how the turnsignals work...was priceless!
😂
You killing on these videos bro. Your editing and transitions flows nice 👌🏾
Appreciate you bro! Still using iMovie too 😀👊
Don’t forget it was designed by an ex Audi designer and engineered and tuned by Albert Biermann, the former head of BMWs M Sport Division. It’s basically a German designed and engineered car built in Korea.
Absolutely! Yeah I told him that when we first met, that would have been a good first reaction though. He does agree that there is major German influence 👊
ever since the koreans brain draining the europe their cars got a lot bettee
If I could actually afford a Stinger I'd have one now. Always thought that it was/is a great gt/touring car.
Oh yeah, especially for the money - it’s very affordable
Stay on the look once the market comes down. I got my 2018 Gt2 back in January with 300 miles for 36k.
Stay positive and keep your mind on your goals - anything is possible 💯
I've had mine since the end of August, and yeah, absolutely worth it. I love it (Snow Pearl white w/ red interior)
I bought a Type S and there’s some shit that I feel is mixing for the damn money I paid.
Amazing channel, I was considering Cupra Leon and was only thinking about Stinger, but after watching every video on this channel, I am changing wallpaper into Stinger ! :)
Thank you bro 🙏 much more to come 😀
This was a dope video and shows the bond we can have as enthusiasts! This one made me a subscriber! Last Sunday one of my dreams came true.... I was able to purchase a used 2020 Stinger GT Indigo Edition. I was initially going for a GT-Line and some how some way..it happened.....very thankful. Thanks for inspiration 🙏
What a great comment man! Thank you so much, yeah 100% agree love how cars bring people together - this was our first meet up hanging out and felt like we’ve been bros for a minute 👊👊
Cannot get enough of the Stinger GT2 videos, including the Scorpion edition. I am definitely planning on making this my first new vehicle purchase, never bought a vehicle with less than 40k miles, and this car has won my admiration.
Man you are not alone! I have to admit, to keep it real, I was loyal to Lexus on my last 3 cars and had a hang up on the whole KIA brand name. Then I went on a test drive and when the guy said “just wait , put it in sport mode” I was sold. It wears a lot of hats and can be a big body cruiser as well. I live in the Midwest , so the AWD is a must. One of my most favorite cars I’ve ever owned to date. 🙌🙌
@@twn2rbo We went to look at Camry's and on the way stopped at Kia dealership. I had seen a bunch of videos here on YT and was wanting just to look. Of course the salesmen surrounded us and talked me into a test drive. It was nice and comfortable then we got on the freeway and he said put it sport mode and get on it. I was shook and sold. Bought the 2020 stinger gt panthera metal and haven't looked back. My favorite car I've ever had. Love everything but having to use premium gas. Lol We bought it when premium was like 2.50 a gallon. Not the case any more.
@@animal482 the same exact thing happened to me. I was a loyal Lexus owner (top end Toyota) and I was very hesitant about getting a KIA. The more research I did, I finally went on a test drive 2 years later and the sport mode got me 😂 I feel ya on the gas man, same situation it was high $2’s ish , but thankfully I work from home and my fiancé has a 4cyl that gets 38 mpg right now 👊
@@twn2rbo 🤣 Lucky dude
I like the man in the driver's seat and his opinions. Respect bro.
Great video i learned a lot, you did it with class both of you .
✊
Yoo dope video nothing like two car enthusiast coming together and respecting each other's cars..
💯
🙏 🙌
For some reason in Australia we can only get them in rear wheel drive. I love em.
Did the police buy them too? Regards from an diesel Stinger owner in Sweden!
RED interior is the best 👌 I have a 2022 GT2 AWD CERAMIC Silver red Interior fully modded already. Loving it best car I've personally owned
Man I feel the same way. This is the only car I’ve had where I love it the same 1 year later. The new car vibe wears off faster usually , but this thing is so fun to drive, esp with the mods. I thought of that yesterday at the dealer too when they were driving it around the corner and I saw it crawling though the parking lot, such a beautiful car!
What mods did you do?
@@seancbrink if you are asking me, ruclips.net/video/CYyQ73SmapY/видео.html I didn’t mention the oil catch can, but I would do that first.
Love these type of Videos! Genuine reactions!
Thanks bro! Yeah it was so cool, this was us meeting up for the first time and just free-styled it for 3 hrs. Lol that was the hardest part getting that much footage down to 20-30 mins.
This shit so funny because when I was younger in the 90s I was always trying to get a big body 4 door to go fast everyone said it was a waste of money lol look at the car industry now 🤣
True! 🤣
M3 owner sounds like a really cool chill bloke. Good on him!
He is! He sold it for a new Corvette C8 though.
8:00 ... "Yeah, yeah" LMAO!
Must of been completely shocked to see indicaters
I'm stoked, I bought a GT used and its unbelievable .
Coming from a kia stinger indigo edition owner. I LOVE this car! Go kia
The fact KIA had an engineer or 2 that used to work at BMW in the M dept be part of the engineering and development really shows. The fact a BMW driver can feel some of that heritage is so good. Pity KIA stopping the production of the Stinger... for the price, theyre an amazing machine.
The VP of KIA US said the stinger is here to stay for awhile. It’s recent news. I’ve also seen several new ad’s on the Stinger here on RUclips so they are spending tons of cash to advertise it still. I do think it’s life is inevitable though with EV taking over the game.
This outta be interesting 🧐- thumbnail looks sick 🔥
Blasphemy! Stinger over G70. LOL - Both are awesome. Love your Stinger!
I would definitely get a 2022 launch edition g70 that matt gray color...but im going towards the 2022 kia stinger scorpion gt2 in the gray with the red interior in few months
@@samuelreid603 Awesome! You'll love the car
I love this car soo much that I got 1 when it first came out, after going for a test drive. 2018 gt awd pearl white.
I feel you there. The test drive got me in sport mode. It was crazy how many looks this car got that Saturday morning on the test drive. It’s special for sure. Good color
Solid video, very nice car. It seemed a little erratic how you switched between the color filters in the editing though.
I appreciate it! Oh yeah, I got a new iphone13 pro max and was trying some new filters out in post editing. I prob just looked over it, still a noob 😂 thank you though 🙏
At 12:43 he forgets he’s driving an automatic and goes to shift lol 😅😂 I want a stick shift car!! I miss it!
I absolutely LOVE my '22 GT2. I had to drive 1.5 hrs to get one in red leather. Worth it on every level. The HUD and side cameras have completely spoiled me.
Love the red leather, done so well
@@twn2rbo agreed wish i could of got red leather but acosta green paint. Couldnt be happier this car is amazing. 22 gt2 owner
We grabbed one the day it hit the lot and had to have it delivered because it was 800 miles away 😂 was one of the only black on black Kia’s stinger in America
Did not like the red interior and glad that one sold before we got to the dealer. lmao. We bought the Micro Blue with the beige interior that only made it to the lot the day before. it wasn't even ready for the lot or in their system yet. Snatched it up! have only had it going on a week but love it!
I traded my 2018 stinger premium for a 2022 Stinger Scorpion edition. Absolutely love it. Expensive but it’s worth every dime. You still get more bang for your buck in terms of package and goodies that it comes with it.
Scorpion is sickkkkk 🔥🔥🔥. Nice 👍
I think scorpion edition might be the one to keep for awhile because its value may go up
@@420hansol oh yeah it will the most, I think all the stingers will go up if or when they axe it. The market is crazy right now, I can get more than what I paid for it which is a first for me!
How do you like the Scorpion ? Does it get a lot of attention?
@@REALJayDOTWill mine is a GT , but I do love the scorpion edition Stingers. Regardless, this car gets a TON of attention wherever I go, esp at the gas stations and cars and coffee. Always good conversations. A lot of people still don’t know what it is lol and are shocked when I say it’s a Kia
Just bought the 19’ gt1 at 23.. to say dreams is an understatement
I’m happy for you. This car really grows on you. I love to drive mine every chance I get, so thankful.
My favorite part of sport mode is how it changes the feel of the steering. Feels heavier and tighter
Yeah man for sure, I want to get that model on my channel and drive it to compare. I have the base GT for $43K. That would be so sick , bc I agree, sport mode wakes this beast up.
In My Audi, Sport mode delimits the wheel turning radius and makes it more fluid, I can take steep corners at higher speed and it also helps that the rear wheels turn at a 5 degree angle in the direction of the front tires. Stinger is just a cheap attempt at the Audi 7 series.
@@nonamenoname4641 Audi is definitely a higher caliber car with more tech. The price is obvious in that regard. This car was only $43K. Not as nice as my Lexus’s in terms of quality, but performance to price ratio : good value.
Is there anything that Kia has not stolen from AUdi ? They stole their chief designer and engineers as well and the BMW lead engineer.
lol the right side is full clear to drive x)
Great video! Kia should be sending you stacks.
I mean any BMW owner should be impressed. The lead engineer from BMW, Albert Biermann came from BMW to develope the Lambda 2 engine platform for Hyundai motor group👍
Yes! 100% true and I can tell, this engine loves to be tuned 😀
@@twn2rbo That's so awesome and good to hear. My JB4 full kit with plugs, intake the whole thing, just shipped today and will get it in a couple days.
One thing that is going to be different is this is for a 2018 Genesis G80 sport 3.3T to which I have seen no one put the JB4 on it.
There is maybe one or two vids but are incomplete or have no follow up and lack the the specific dialogue you videos have
After I receive mine I am going to do vids as well as follow ups to the best of my ability as I can't be the only one curious with this tuner on a G80 platform.
Can't wait to see how it does. As it is to me the G80 already feels quick stock and that's coming from my single turbo 95 Supra 6spd😎👌
@@SupraNaturalTT man that’s awesome! The 3.3tt should be the same layout. Keep me posted on that, esp if you do content . as soon as I get a chance I’m going to make vids on making vids and my process of editing step by step
I’m 1 month into owning my 19’ GT2 Stinger. I absolutely love it. I’ve been a die hard Audi guy for years. Owned 20 of them from big turbo B5s4’s to the 2019 RS5/s5. I currently own a 2014 RS5 but needed to add a fun dad car. I would have never thought to look at this car. The black with red is such a good look. The power is insane and not much has been able to keep up with it. It turns heads, and since I replaced all the Kia logos, people don’t know what it is. Great car for the money. This should have been a 65-70k car. The build quality is excellent. The only things I hate are the auto stop/start, the front collision slamming on breaks when flying up on cars pisses me off. All of which you can turn off but still every time I get in it’s just annoying having to shut of it off. I might leave the wheels and just throw on an awe exhaust and H&R sport springs. The car looks so good as it is. Oh, last thing, the brembos suck! Lol
I know how you feel, you will get so much attention in that car, trust me. Esp when you mod it. That’s funny, I just picked up a 10 sec S4 (b8.5) for the channel. I haven’t announced it yet, but it has every performance mod made I think lol. I may pick your brain on Audi. Were you part of any of the forums? Which ones you like best? Congrats on your new Stinger man! I have some more vids coming out with ECU tunes that have been improved.
Ol' mate has clearly never driven a tuned powerful sedan with AWD. I've owned a Toyota Soarer with a VVT-i 1JZ and I was always aware of how traction is a limiting factor. Once late night I was tired and in the rain I made a mistake: turbo kicked in, rears lost traction and car spun out. I think the M3 owner just fell in love with utter security and planted feel of the AWD.
As a BMW owner, this is more or less the only other car I would consider, but mostly because I can't afford an M3 lol. I have spent 15 years driving manuals and I would prefer a manual. I am currently driving an e90 330xi, and that ZF transmission is really slow. Still it is 15 year old tech, so I'm guessing the newer automatics are way better. Anyway, good video man, keep it up!
Good stuff bro! Keep up that grind and positive mindset and you’ll hit it one day. M3 is sick and would be a good goal!
Kia , Hyundai, Genesis is killing it, just bought a Telluride SX and love it. And I have owned everything from a Hyundai, Honda, Corvette Z06, Infiniti to a
Mercedes E550.
Agree! I like the blacked out Telluride , the headlights always catch my eye. I’m with ya on the range of cars, I’ve had Lexus’s, Honda, Toyota, Acura, a Jeep and mustang.
Nice video, big fan of the stinger 👌
Thank you 👊
I just got a forte GT , still haven’t uploaded a video but I’m seeing a lot similarities between the forte and stinger, wish it had the awd though
The absolute most fun I've had in a car (that I own). Do you have aftermarket rotors/pads? Looking to upgrade mine
I haven’t had any issues yet, they could bite a little better since the car is so heavy though. I’m at 10k right now
Well well well....it was designed by a former BMW and Mercedes-Benz Engineer. They didn't like the direction their companies were going so they teamed up with Kia and spear-headed the Stinger project!
hey! i was wondering what specific phone holding mount you use? it fits so well with your stinger!
It was made by ProClip, but it got discontinued. They sent me this new one and I’m about to end the giveaway if interested. ruclips.net/video/Qp42wId-HgE/видео.html the new one is in a better spot for reach ability and is more sturdy, but I do like the location of the old one.
My stock front splitter on my 2019 GT2 almost ripped off @175 mph. Not sure if Kia tested them over their limited 167mph but now anything over 150 and that splitter starts separating from the front bumper cover. Still no regrets after 2 years tho.
Yooo what??? 175? Bro that's insane man!
my dream car, i mean i would love an Aston Martin or a Lotus but daaaamn a Stinger with that BMW wrap maybe in green or orange... SICK AF the best thing about Stinger is a lot of people thinks is not that great and the purchase of a used one is relatively cheap that you got a bargain for a diamond
Facts man, I think the Ascot green with a PPF wrap like Zo has on his M3 would be sick, have you ever seen that color on the Stinger? It’s a new on they started in 2022.
Love the look and size of the stinger. I have 18” S4 stage 1 430/570 with lots of other drivetrain goodies. Come time to get another car I’ll definitely consider this for it’s tunability and size. SUb’d I appreciate the content.
That’s awesome Lee! That’s a great car to compare to honestly, but yeah the tunability and cost of ownership it’s amazing, so is the AWD system! Love how it has a hatch with folding seats as well
I have stinger gt1 rear wheel drive ,I removed the spare tyre and all stuff related I floor it sometimes when its tank has little fuel in it
It is damn fast 😳
That it is! I remove my spare and subs from time to time. Just be careful on running it hard on low fuel, the gas helps cool the fuel pump and when it’s low on fuel it can be hard on it and make it wear out faster 👊👊👊. We all do it from time to time lol
Glad I took the time today to test drive the new GT2. Car is very comfortable and quick! Been on my radar for some time but know it’s between the Chevy SS and Scatpack Widebody. I just wish prices would settle a bit!
I was also very surprised on the test drive, esp how they engineered sport mode to wake this thing up. Intakes, exhaust and tune REALLY wake this thing up! I’m with you on the prices, crazy times!
I’m in the same situation as you lmao these 3 cars are hard to choose from can’t beat mod capability on the ss/Kia but also the chargers mean ass look is tempting lmao
@@juan_f150 yeah a V8 RWD is a blast man, nothing like it. But the twin turbos on this screammm.
@@twn2rbo what would you recommend for a daily ? I’m going to be tuning both what would be faster ? And what feels torquier to you ?
@@juan_f150 kinda just depends, but the Stinger has some really low down torque similar to a V8, but with some bolt ons and a tune you will beat Scatpacks all day. Then next thing would be reliability, I may be a little biased but the Stinger has forged internals and both the engine and trans can take 800 hp, warranty would be out of the question for all if you are caught modding them, but the Stinger has 100k. The last thing I would think about is just how common scat packs are, which is why I went with the Stinger, it’s like the ultimate trolling car 😂 V8s sound bad ass though and the Chevy LS is pretty bullet proof. If it were me I’d go Stinger but I’m a little biased there
Dunno how I ended up here,
Own a 2022 M3 Comp Xdrive, if you think the 2021 comp RWD is insane, you should see the xdrive version.
I have down 0 to 60 in 3.1 bone stock. I'm running Jb4, downpipes, and a midpipe right now. I'm adding intakes and e40 soon. I've already been 10.6 with a passenger lol.
Damn! That's seriously quick. I love my 15 RCF, but I still miss my FBO F10 535i that I sold a little over a year ago. Before I bought my RCF I was checking out the F80 ///Ms, but ultimately decided to go with the Lexus.
Lol well thanks for watching bro! That was my first M experience and I totally see how you guys get hooked on them. My stinger is AWD and I’ve always been more of a dig person, I could only imagine if his was xdrive too. 3.1 is sick! After I do my TCU tune I’ll be at 3.5 which isn’t bad considering it’s a 4100 slugger with a car seat in the back 😂
I owned 3 Lexus’s prior to this car, Lexus is #1 to me, still to this day. They are over engineered perfection regarding quality and reliability. They just have a such a solid feel. I had a IS350 and GS350 F sport, I always wanted the ISF, and I have my eyes on that IS500. Nothing will ever compare to that 5.0 NA v8, esp with an exhaust on it. Love the RC-F, you made a good choice
@@twn2rbo i have a GT2 Ceramic Silver w/ red interior and a few mods aesthetic wise. All badges replaced, inside and out and matte black wrap on tiny detailing that made such huge difference in the look of the car. As a past three time 3 series BMW owner, as well as an Infiniti G35 Coupe. I can't believe I'm about to this, but I LOVE my "KIA" Stinger GT2!!! I find myself making up reasons to drive now, it's like therapy. And I've watched people pretty much stand on their heads trying to figure out what it is lol, I've only had it about 3 weeks, and so far I've heard everything from a Mustang, to a Porsche, to "some kind of new Jag"????. When i tell em "it's a Kia"...the expressions i get crack me up I just wanna commend you for always keeping it positive when you come across the occasional hater, keep up the good work✌
Well the G2 prior to 2022 has a bigger screen and bigger dash screen and different shift handle
i got a 2018 kia stinger premium and hes right! put it in sport mode and HOLY SHIT!
Brooo IKR, a lot of cars I had with sport mode have nothing on this one! Turns into a whole new animal
Crazy thing about the used market for the stinger in Canada right now is insane, you can find a 2018 with 35,000KM for $35k CAD
It is insane here too! I can sell mine for $3k over what I paid for it, unless they find out it was tuned etc.
Telling an M3 owner I'm going to put in comfort mode so you can get use to it lol! ( If you have an M3 you know how nice this guy was being)
🤣 IKR , I was more less wanting him to see the dramatic difference between comfort and sport. It’s insane
Brother I'm telling you that you should go check out the G70 too. I love mine! It definitely feels different than the Stinger. I'd be super interested your thoughts.
Sounds like a plan! They have a sick dealership here in Indianapolis too. If there is some decent dry weather around the corner I’ll see what I can do.
As a 2022 G70 owner, I agree with you. They are both fun cars to drive. I love my G70!😃
@@purplelexus5399 I love the interior, so luxurious and sporty at the same time , plus I think they are lighter weight compared to the Stinger and come with a LSD in the rear end
@@twn2rbo Yes, the G70 is lighter, and all the 3.3T RWD models have LSD. As for the Stinger, I like the exterior, but the G70’s interior is what caught my eye. Great video BTW. 🙂
Great video! I watched till the end 😄👌🏼🔥
🙏
Nice roll points well taken GT all day long love it peace
🙏 👊
I love how they just clicked….nice video bro
For sure bro 👊 yeah that was our first time ever hanging too, good times
Great video
Louvers on the mirrors are most likely for wind buffeting.
I bought a 2021 Kia Forte GT w/ the GT2 package a couple of months ago. I would've gotten a Stinger if I had some more money saved up, but I like some of the Stinger inspired styling in my car and how the Forte GT pulls like its nothing. How's the support with the JB4? I'm looking into getting a JB4 soon and get an extra 30-50 whp, but I kind of want to keep it stock for a while too.
Trade it in for a stinger later... you'll still have fun in that forte GT, especially with a JB4!!
@@XAMPOL What do you think about the Rev6 or EK1 Pro from SXTH Element? I looked them up and they aren’t really too far away to do a weekend tune and dyno possibly. 🤷🏻♂️
Get a Tork tune! My GT2 has wheelspin even at 80kmh lmao
Can you link the phone mount that is being used in the Stinger ?
They discounted this one, but they are about to send me a new prototype for review and I will link that one. This one they had issues with it staying in place - I personally think it’s awesome with the magnetic mount, but the magnetic mount messes up wireless charging
I bought a 2022 GT2 and it's the best car I've ever driven.
I have a 2020 stinger GT limited in 🇨🇦 and it's an amazing car. Best value for money in that segment. One thing bro, The center console it's not aluminum. The only thing that made of aluminum is the speaker covers. 😁
Yeah another subscriber mentioned that, seems like it is how it dents and nics so easy and when feeling the materials it’s colder than the plastic counter parts. If it’s not, they fooled me on that piece! 👊
@@twn2rbo i think only genesis uses aluminum trims at their G80 GV70 GV80 and maybe the G70. My boss have the GV70 sport + and it's all real materials.
@@avis1978 yeah I still need to drive on of those, may make a good vid. I’m going to have to buy a metal detector now 😂
@@twn2rbo 😃... The GV70 drives really nice. Take care .
Hi mate what are all the things you have done to you stinger I’m interested in buying one but want to make it better than stock. Used to own a R33 skyline that was modified and was a pretty quick car. Thanks in advance
Best Mods For The Kia Stinger GT
ruclips.net/video/CYyQ73SmapY/видео.html I need to make an updated one, but performance wise this is still the same , I did add the snorkels though which lowered the IATs and help cool off the engine bay better
What model is that all black BMW in the beginning of the video?
That’s a 2017 M440i xdrive. I just met him that day. He said he is ECU stage 2 with downs . We had to take off, but I was following him and that thing is pretty fast, we will get some rolls and digs in when the weather permits, mid west blows right now, cold and wet a lot
LOVING my ‘22 GT2 AWD!
What part of Indy are you from? Stinger owner from the east side. Always looking to meet up with others around
Send me a message on IG, there’s a couple more wanting to do the same and I would like to organize a group stinger photo to rep the Midwest
Makes me want to buy one right now.
It’s been 18 months and I still love it
I wanna see this on MRR VP3 rims
Well, this commentary was gr8, content great, and content quite late for the review, the car is discontinued and it was loved!
Thank you! I’m a little confused though, I am at the dealer now and salesman said they aren’t going to discontinue it and I just seen a 22 Stinger GT commercial on here. Hopefully they don’t but the sales are low and I’ve heard that rumor too. We will see once Kia Motors makes an official announcement 😅
At least he admitted he was short
My kia soul sounds like that too 😂😂😂. At least I pretend.😊
It feels German because the designer of the stinger (and the one responsible for the modern tiger nose KIA design DNA) Peter Schreyer was poached from VW group by KIA in 2006. Most widely recognised for his heavy involvement in the design of the Audi TT. That’s why the Kia stinger looks and feels so good and has that German feel.
That is correct , and with the addition of BMW M performance Albert Biermann who played a major role in the development of the Stinger
So you’re running map 4 now? How is that? I get my jb4 and pnp fuel wires today super excited to see what this car is about being my previous car was a 2016 Holden Chevy ss that was fbo and cammed. Love the videos man!
It’s great! I set my boost limit at 25 and it hit 24.7 a couple times, I don’t do it often. My fav map out of all is map 3. I just ordered the PNP and EWG connectors and will be doing a couple of separate install vids on them.
@@twn2rbo nice nice! Yeah I ordered the ewg wires as well but after doing more research it seems like they aren’t needed until you run hfp so replace stock primary downpipes.. but I may be wrong. I plan on running map2 all the time and only map3 or 4 if I go out for some digs or roll racing
how many hp does your tune give you? Just got a kia stinger 2018 and i love it so far
The JB4 with bolt ons in map 3 are around 420 wheel hp I believe. When I added my Lozic tune I was close to 500awhp
Is this the awd or rwd model?
Thinking of getting one but unfortunately in the UK they only sell the RWD model 3.3l v6.
Yes, mine is the base GT AWD
Difference between BMW is no high maintenance special mechanical equipment for M cars!
Just got a 2023 Kia Stinger GT2 with the Grand Tourer packaging. Decided to jump on it while there was one in the area. The car is a dream come true! But, I used to drive a Mazda6 and Camry TRD, so I have no idea how much “better” the BMW/Audis are… don’t care though. This car is amazing. So sad it’s been discontinued…
Ha! I am editing a video right now actually where a subscriber and I go over his 2023 GT2 Touring Edition! Such a beautiful car, the interior has alcantara all over it!
@@twn2rbo Awesome! I’ll look forward to checking that out then when it drops. Keep up the great work! 😊
Great content I enjoyed it video… definitely subscribe…
Thank you! 👊👊
Hey I love the videos man! Just a question. I have a 2022 stinger gt line but I can’t find any tune chips, or really any other parts. What should I do?
That is a great question. I looked up the 22 GT Line and it has the 2.5T right? I am checking with the owner of BurgerTuning now to see if the 2.5t Kia/Hyundai tune will work on yours, the bottom of the website lists a bunch of 2.5t applications but I didn’t see Stinger, but I would think it should work. If it does, you will want to dig in to plug gapping specs and find some intakes. Jump on N54tech.com and do some research first , I’ve seen some 2.5t tuned
@@twn2rbo thank you so much bro I appreciate it🙏
@@brycemorang1355 He said he will add the vehicle to the page and that it would work as it takes the same harness.
Look at the videos from Vivid Visual! Lot of carbon fiber parts there!
Howcome you never show them that you can shift by pushing forward and backward on the shifter instead of the paddles? Feel like that is something a lot of people miss and it works much better while taking turns
I do it sometimes, but most of the time I use paddles as my go to. Just have to make sure it’s in manual mode bc if not your going to neutral lol. Maybe I’ll do that on a coming up vid bro
Is this car a 2018 model gt2 class?
m3 driver: wow you can floor it without blowing a head gasket?
Is this a base GT-Line? I noticed the small screen???
No it’s a base 21 GT AWD, the new screen came in 2022. They announced the refresh 2 months after I bought mine 😂 but I can do a swap for that same screen, it looks 10x better
Got a 2018 Stinger GT and it is awesome
🙌🙌🙌
What color did you get?
Is your stinger stock under the hood?

Stinger GT is fast enough and also practical
