“Sampling the Latest Automotive Delicacies!”
Kia is really making a statement with this car, the color is wild!!
Absolutely! Maybe thay should offer a color like this on the Telluride.
LoL. The only way you'll see THAT is to buy a Telluride & take it to the paint shop! 😊
@@bruschmidt9943 Yes that's true. Thanks.
Kia is doing good this year so far
I don't know what to say except WOW! I thought your Mercedes S-Class review was amazing, but this review of the Kia Stinger GTS is even better! Orange is my favorite color, so this is naturally the best car review you have ever done, hands down. I love the Kia Stinger, it's so adorable like you guys are. Keep it going, and remember, hard work really pays off. 💗
Wow, best ever! Thanks bud!🙂
@@CarConfections You're very welcome.
I have no words for this car ex cept for WOW! This thing is an absolute beast! I love the orange paint, and hands down this is the best review you have done. I love the Kia Stinger and I love you guys! ❤️
Thanks man! It was an awesome car to film!
All of a sudden I'm thirsty for a glass of orange juice
😂😂
😂
Great video showing a exclusive model for a powerful and affordable Kia
They could have done a lot better with this car considering its "Limited" edition model. If it had my way, the specs would have been bumped to atleast 400hp, enhanced exhaust sound, splash of orange color in the interior (seats, side panels) to compliment and match the exterior, larger display on the odometer and a HUD.. for the price of about $45k+ and above, and yes, I've seen some dealers making outrageous markups with this vehicle, again, they could have done better.. but it is what it is.. Kia continues to make waves and other manufacturers are taking notice.
Couldn't have said it better myself. I would only add, they should gloss black paint (or wrap) rear upper section of roof panel. This way we'll see continuous black between hood & decklid. There is no improvement or benefit in matching that piece to the car !
Kia and Hyundai moving up the ranks, American, German, and Japanese Motor Manufacturers better take notice.
Excellent review, one of the most in depth reviews I have seen on youtube. I will probably be purchasing a GT2 when I am in the market for a new car.
Thanks man! You can't go wrong with any of the Stinger models! 🔥😀
You two guys did a very legitimate review. Unlike most u-tubers you hopefully realize a video is about the product/topic you are focusing on not your personality or personal life. Keep the focus on the products and you guys will do well!
Thank you, Mark! We appreciate it!
A definite attention getter with the ponies to back it up. Good job guys. :D
I really like those seats, they look super supportive! Which is a good thing, if you're gonna drive like a mother!
orange contrast stitching across the entire cabin would've given it some extra pumpkin spice
I'm loving checking out your guys' channel! I'm actually a GTS AWD owner (one of 400!), and this was the best, most accurate breakdown of the GTS I've seen. There's a lot of confusing, or ambiguous information out there on the GTS, and you did a great job breaking it down! Only thing I think you missed was a demo of launch control and how to engage the GTS AWD "drift mode" 😉
Thanks! Awesome car 👍👍
I love the 2020 Kia Stinger, it’s very sexy and nice, I really love the Orange!! I love the Aluminum gas padels ! I went my first car to be Orange now! Lol!
Well no matter what this colour is the best
ruclips.net/video/rMTA3LUnA0c/видео.html
I think this car is calling me :)
It's a great car...drives phenomenally!
Picking mine up Friday and can’t freakin wait
Just went into Kia today and they had the same one on the show room. It’s gorgeous in person. I want it
Get a 2019 Honda Accord it’s great
A Honda offers no exclusivity or personality..boo :( What was sticker price on the GTS you saw?
@@Yondaily Honda isn't AWD and can't be put into RWD. It's a great FWD car, if that's what you like...but that's a no-go for me.
I live in Canada , and I bought the 2018 blue AWD GT1 Model , I change the mode driving system within the season's .I paid 44k$$ Can brand new.All option in it less than GT2 , but Carbon Fiber accessories inside.
Great looking car, needs the new 10.2 infotainment screen.
2:22 OMG I really wish all Stingers going forward will have the "Stinger" logo on the back instead of the Kia logo. Looks a million times better.
No. I Hope they will make the Kia logo bigger in the next Stinger. Just to drive away badge whores and other peoples living only by their image.
In the UK and ordered an orange GTS...4 weeks to go!!!
Nev Barton how is it?
I purchased a black one for my wife and a red one for me. We love our stingers.
That color is amazing
I just fell in love. I've always loved Kia but this.....this is 🔥
This is an amazing vehicle
Wow...Kia is hitting it out of the park with this one. I was thinking the Mazda 6 should be your next car, but after this, and your previous review of the base Stinger, I think we have a new winner!
Love the stinger
The Stinger is one sweet car!
Hiccups at the end HA! ;)
Love the stinger styling
I love it too.
@@amininshassi6370 probably the most bold and aggressive korean car
@@user-Timothy1 Yup.
@Warren Shiflett Wow! Good for you Warren. I'm glad you're enjoying your GT2.
Was at a Kia dealer today to look at a sorento for the family. The looks are nice, they almost convinced me to trade in my M3.
I didn't drive it maybe I'll try it out we'll see..
Drew and Mason, wow 😄. You know I was thinking the X3 M Competition you guys recently reviewed was sexy, and I still think that of the X3 M, 500hp in an X3, hallelujah 🙌. However, this here Stinger GTS review, you two took it to whole other level. Drew, you said jibber jabber 😅. I'm honestly astounded that the Stinger GTS is a Kia. Why only 800? I've said it before, and I will say it again, you two bring something different to the table with your channel. It's awesome 👌.
Glad you enjoyed because we sure did!
The stinger is pretty cool, but nothing like a X series M, how would you compare?
E92 M3 snitzer CS owner and X4 M completion owner, both kill the stinger, but of course different price/animal..
Stunning color
I just brought my 2018 Stinger in for its second brake job. Rotor issues. First time Kia payed, not this time. $900 to fix. Going to check other options. I have had the car for 18 months. Love the car, but not sure I will keep it since it is a lease. And if you look at Stinger forums, there are many others who are having the same problem.
digmacdiggydoo wow I got and 18 stinger too but only had it 7 months it’s a lease if I have this problem I have complementary oil and brake change build into my payments so I should be ok
Does it shake when braking?
XxFolksxX not wen braking but sometimes tha steering wheel shakes a little while I’m driving at certain speeds mines came wit Ashanti wheels So it mite be that idk
@@XxFolksxX The steering wheel did shake when the brakes were applied. Since I had the rotors replaced again, the problem, for now, is resolved.
Oooh it's sooo sexy 😍😍😍
Kia should make a cool bee logo for their stinger line. Like Ford with the Mustang. THAT would be amazing!
Rather have a gt2 with a orange wrap
Hiccups starts at the 32mins mark🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lolol you guys pay more attention to the footage than we do 😂
I must admit it concerned me at first but glad you were ok
I Don’t know Drew... I think you might want to head back to Car Town Kia and see what they will give you for your Toyota! Haha... Now that’s a Sedan you will definitely get noticed in!!
Lol do you think they'd give me $25k for my '10 Camry? 😂😂
Car Confections haha.... yeah, I don’t think you could wax your car good enough to pull those kind of numbers!!! 😂... guess we will let that orange bullet go and move on to something better and more affordable! 😉. She is a sweet car, though... thank you both for sharing!
Selling my bug for this baby...I can't wait 🧡
Howdy, great review as always!😻😺
I think you should get this as your new car drew. Come on please!
I'm sure Drew would love to, but he said he wants to stay within the $30,000 budget. This is just a friendly reminder by the way.
That’s true, I forgot thanks for the heads up. Do you think he would like the sonata 2.0t?
Haha yeah over my budget... unfortunately
@@CarConfections That's okay Drew. I'm just glad a vehicle like this exists, especially at its price point. And most importantly, it's a welcome change from the overwhelming SUV crowd.
@@bradleyscarreviews No problem, glad to help. And it's okay because you know what, it happens to everyone sometimes, even to people who have strong memory.
The music is perfect with the car.😎
I think the "Stinger" and the "Cadenza" are a bit high in price, don't misunderstand me I like the Kia, I like the style attracts a lot of attention, in fact I have an Optima my lease ends this year and I wanted to change it for a Cadenza but here where I live in they don't have it, they have the Stinger but it costs $ 45K With this amount I can buy a 2019 Jaguar or a Mercedes. I know that these cars that I mentioned do not have as much attraction as the Cadenza or the Stinger. But in the end if you buy one of these cars you can sell it at a better price than a Kia.
Great review. I just purchased my 2019 GTS RWD . :)
Sweet! Congrats!
Little question, but important. Does the fact that you send 80% to 100% of power to the rear wheels, not affect the durability of the transmission ?
We had this on other cars before, and some suffered of those issues.
actually The Kia Stinger is a leopard not a tiger Tiger is a BMW M6 Coupe
Thanks for show the showing the sound system, so often not even mentioned.
No problem, we think it's very important
I want one!!!!!
Beautiful car!Love Kia making this!
What’s the name of the song when you turned on the audio system?
I just got my 2019 Kia Stinger GT in Panthera Metal ... this car is awesome I have Borla exhaust system which really sound freaky amazing and rims from(NICHE). I also have Stinger badge on the front and rear but I should have upgraded to the GT 1 for the speakers. I guess I will just put some after market speakers. This car is freaky ass sexy..people come up to me asking what is this since I took off the Kia badges...
Love that color!
I literally had a guy in an SUV hang half of his body out of the front window to give me 2 thumbs up a couple days ago. I have a Red GT2 but I blacked out all the black chrome on the entire car and have black rims with a red lip. She gets a lot of attention. I have the ark Grip exhaust too, sounds amazeballs.
My car on display! Love it!
kia did the lime rock limited edition too?
Sickening the house ❤️❤️❤️
i would kill for that shifter style in my 18 stinger, the amount of times i have gone to switch to reverse and ended up in neutral is way more then i would like to admit
I love the car but, I’ll stick with the GT2 model. Great review
Thanks! 😀
I was thinking the same thing. Outside of the carbon fiber and maybe the alcantara it doesn't really feel like you're getting a top of the line car. Kia could've just taken the GT2 and added the extra bells and whistles, along with maybe boosting the horse power and exhaust note.
You should test drive the Cadillac ats v
Cadillacs are gross. Including your cheesy CTSv
I know you were looking for a new car. Hope you took this one home, for the price, power and practically would be a great choice.
Haha would've loved to but it's still a big rich for my blood
@@CarConfections Haha I get it. Maybe hold off on buying just yet, wait a bit longer to save up. Only if your current car will let you.
I saw this color in person..wasn't happening for me either.
If they make another limited run in yellow I'd be interested.
motomaxsandiego they already have sunset yellow....
@@ItsJustJonn not gts. Gts comes only in 🍊
@@ItsJustJonn ,
They made a limited yellow couple years ago...had paint recall.
There are no yellow ones around new.
motomaxsandiego yeah I have the yellow one you can see it in my profile pic
@@robertb6135 you have a yellow one GTS with all the carbon parts and alcantara steering wheel?
Can you do a regal gs?
I guess we'll wait and see.
do a stinger gts vs avalon trd
They should have made a GT2S so I can have ventilated seats and everything a GT2 has, but still have LSD and drift mode! Now I'm torn between trims!
I love the alcantara and carbon fiber trim, but other than that why would I pick this car over the GT2?
Uhhhhh, to get it in Orange with real carbon fiber goodies! 😁😀☺
@@bruschmidt9943 exactly! People are basically giving up features for a color.
@@mjareacts2731 Yes & true. The only reasoning I can think is, they didn't want a $56,000+ KIA on their lots, had they offered this package on the GT2?
@@bruschmidt9943 that's true, but the crazy thing is you can still order those carbon fiber inserts from KIA anyway.
Because you can put the GTS D-AWD into 100% RWD. So you get AWD when you need it and when you don't need it, you can have a 100% RWD car. As much as I loved my GT2 AWD, the rear LSD and the ability for my AWD to go full RWD made it totally worth the switch.
Federation Orange...? This has got to be a nod to The Dukes. Just needs a Confederate Flag on the roof, and 01 on the door, and with that LSD & Drift Mode, this is a modern version of the General E. Lee!
I dont like orange but this fore orange is ..fire
I wonder how the Stinger compares to your Tesla M3? Was waiting for you and your bro to drift the 2 cars side by side at a track....lol
Haha maybe we will some day! Sounds like fun!
Love this color!😎👍👌
How can I get this orange color
Ive been driving '12 Optima SX.. and I swore I'd drive something elese when my car finally dies....butttttttt I might drive another Kia for a few more years
The sun roof goes back further if you press the button twice.
Do they make this color for the 2022??
Yes
I have a 2018 Stinger GT2 and frankly from what I saw there's nothing that would make me consider moving to this. In fact I'm still kinda wondering why they made this model..
I had a 2018 GT2 AWD and I traded it for the GTS D-AWD. I am not disappointed with my decision.
@@jimlittle5769 That's good to hear!! I love the color and the accents they did on this model.
When did the Stinger get new touchscreen? Mine has the old one...rounded corners..
This is the 8-inch premium screen, but the lower trims still have the 7-inch display
424th like, 8th comment, 51st like with 4 dislikes. I love this car!!🔥
I had enough Kia is German not Korean anymore!
this color is beautiful on the stinger
Is the GTS only in this orange?
Yes only orange
You forgot to mention it has no driver memory seat setup and no heads up display.
Is this the highest GT model?
No, it actually fits in between the GT and GT1 in terms of equipment
I hate how the trunk opens. looks like a Prius
Can you review a Dodge Durango
Hopefully we will add an FCA partner in the near future!
색깔뭐지 개인택시 에디션인가??
they need a v8 version, and a hybrid v6tt
🔥🔥🔥🔥
who designed the inside , were they drunk ???
Just get a 2015 S4 with a tune for 20k less.
Dio Santana and allot less reliability... I traded my s7 for a gt2... something was always breaking on it..
I hate that Knob. GT2 all the way.
Love the car. Not feeling the color.
No manual??
Appears to me the orange paint, carbon fiber trim and some relatively meaningless interior trims are the only differences between this so-called limited edition and the GT-1that sells for a lower price. No added power, no new wheels, same brakes...pffffffft. Add in the routine Kia squeaks and rattles that will appear somewhere around 2,000 miles and be significantly more pronounced by 5,000 miles, the $15k difference between the Stinger and the German sports sedans is well worth the premium.
Having owned two KIA's over the last decade I've never experienced ANY "squeaks and rattles" in either one. Perhaps you weren't listening to the video. That wouldn't be surprising. The GTS has an MSRP is $1300 LESS than the GT1. Any other insightful comments or would you like to correct your errors?
@@stephenhendricks103
Since you were compelled to play English teacher prior to your edit, please note the spelling and definition of the word "squeak" per the Merriam-Webster Dictionary.
squeak (sic)
noun
Definition of squeak
1 : a sharp shrill cry or sound
Further, based on my experience riding in my brother-in-law's Cadenza (20,000+ mileage) and my son's Soul rental, I imagine that the tire and road noise, the wind noise, and the intrusive engine noise tended to minimize any squeaks and rattles in your Kia vehicles.
@@terrykarlin4340 And your comment regarding the price of the GTS?
@@stephenhendricks103 You are correct and I was in error. The base price of the GTS is $1,300 less than the GT-1. I suspect the actual purchase price of the Gt-1 will be less than the limited edition.
@@terrykarlin4340 Thanks for being more polite than I was, Terry. You may be correct about real world prices since there will be fewer "limited edition" GTS versions available and demand may create that result. On the other hand, KIA clearly aimed the GTS to test the waters for a slightly more budget friendly alternative of the Stinger with the V6 engine designed to capture those who want fewer options combined with more "exclusivity."
Not being especially fond of orange it wouldn't be me but I suspect that well heeled students at the University of Texas and the University of Tennessee will snap them up. I say that because when I was at UT in Austin years ago practically every orange Olds Cutlass in the US was owned by sororority girls at the university. :)
Edit: I suppose I should add Syracuse U students and alums. :)
Body style is cool but interior sucks :(
right?.. the interior is too bland for a "limited" edition model.. smh. They could have done a better job with it.
Hope you motor doesn’t catch fire 🔥
Nice car but still cheap I will prefer Audi or BMW, for the price
Limited edition Kia. LMAO. 🤣
I hope you're not laughing your ass off and you drive a Ford or Dodge
@@vegasman33322 dont worry, he probably is writing this because he has time while waiting for the tow truck to come get his Audi or BMW.
Andy's Shop I’ll smoke his slow ass BMW with my stinger love beating them as well as Mustangs
But my friends at the country club won’t talk to me if I showed up there with a Kia!
@@doccyber Yeah they also won't talk to you in a C300 either.
This cars is low quality because looking nice first or second year after that looks older
My BMW is faster
Yes fast than a Ford Focus nahhh
Wow!.... lol
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
