Is this car even fun? It’s very heavy.

On the few occasions I see these they do catch my eye, but then I’m just “damn, too bad that’s a Kia” and go on about my day.
Anyone here own one?

If they were at least still making them you could at least point to the MSRP and the meme 10 year powertrain warranty, but what's the appeal at this point aside from the fact that it's rare to see one?

I don't know how it drives, but I do know it's the only interesting Kia. It's not some over designed tryhard modern futurism piece of bullshit, it's not an Explosive Vehicle, it looks like a normal respectable sports car by the past 10 years' standards.

Why would anyone get one of these over a BMW? I don't even particularly like beemers, but the Stinger is just a worse version of one in every way.

Auto only and the turbos are in a nightmare location that allegedly requires a subframe drop to access. I wanted to like these, but I think id easily choose a Cadillac V sedan over these or kraut crap any day

Just traded in my 2019 GT2, great everyday driving car and you never felt the weight unless you were trying to keep up with a WRX on a gravel road. Good tires, upgraded brake pads and rotors and an oil catch can will make it an extremely reliable daily driver and comfortable cruiser. Never had a single problem under the hood, the recall is a easy fix and only affected a handful of cars that had previous maintenance done in the same area.Only issues I had was needing the AC Evap Core and multi-function front facing camera replaced and both of the power trunk motors crapping out. Those issues were all covered under the extended warranty but would have run over $5000 to fix.Engine was bulletproof but things like the water pump, oil pump and alternator turn into a sub-frame drop very quickly. Also the spark plugs are known to be a pain to access and dealers charge $900+ to do them.Another issue people dont bring up is the insurance rates. Even though they have push-button starts and immobilizer they got caught up with all of the Kia Boys craze and insurance companies either jacked up rates or dropped customers entirely. I know people in high risk states paying $300+ a month and my carrier dropped me in 2023, had to get on with my fiance's policy otherwise no companies were opening new policies for high risk Kias. My new car is worth 3 times what the Stinger was and my insurance is dropping $22 a month...
