• PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

NC Thread

Hahaha, she looks headstrong, I wouldn't want to do that in morning. Hated it everyday when I was in NY.

I lived in Kansas City for 3 years and then Joplin for another 3. Horrible places to own RWD sports/muscle cars. In KC I had a Camaro that got stuck IN the driveway. Had to walk to work. It was 3 degrees that day. Once in Joplin I got a Lexus stuck trying to get into my garage (driveway was a hill). I had to leave the car half in the driveway half in the street. I figured moving to NC would mean no more snow. Boy was I wrong.
 
Just took my GT2 AWD with 18" A/S for a spin and felt pretty steady. The roads in my apartment complex were completely covered except for a few tire tracks and I had some fish tailing in one turn. Main roads were mostly clear and no issues there.

Was able to back back into my spot afterwards with a little extra gas. Overall pretty impressed with the Stingers performance.

Lol, when I was visiting Kansas last year and rented RWD Challenger, it was raining on a corner my car hydroplaned, drifted and bumped on to side walk. May be Kansas needs AWD. I had a FWD when I was in NY State (Binghamton) but made through it.

From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
My wife just told me she sees a blue Stinger on 40 a couple times a week.
 
We need to get him on the forums, He didn’t want to play with the other cars... I did!
 
I haven't seen any stingers on the road until last Thursday in a Lowe's parking lot in Indian trail.

Also, the Costco that i work at in Matthews has a dark grey stinger on display there
 
Premium Silky Silver RWD here in Hendersonville NC. Only tried to climb the driveway grade with the new Nokian tires and they worked great. Didn't want to go out though without reason onto the salt-laden roads. Mostly melted now. Had about 13-14" last weekend. Grew up in the snow belt up North navigating with an '86 2WD Toyota pickup, so figure I can manage with a much heavier car with great tires here for the 1-3 snows we may get in a year. Heck, this may have been the only one we will get ALL year.
