• 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!

AUSTRALIAN STINGER OWNERS

All the dealers are trying to get rid of 2018 builds to make way for 2019’s due probably early/mid Feb. so good deals/bargains to be had for those looking to get into one.

Yeah some are already trying to offload MY19 demo models but I’d still be checking closely to make sure they’re not actually MY18. I saw a YouTube video today from John Cadogan where he said basically the bottom fell out of sales across pretty much all brands in December so he reckons now’s a good time to buy as they’re all desperate to sell and as a result willing to deal. From the tv ads it seems most around Newcastle are having sales, not just Kia. I’m assuming Kia is a nation wide thing to coincide with the Australian Open.
 
Dec Jan is always good time to buy a new car because of the calender year change for the car's build or compliance year. Although this seems less important these days as the MY labelling being applied that has crept over from other markets. Either way it is all just marketing ... so you just have to be happy to part with your money at the time for what your getting.

G’day @Doc, welcome to the forum & to the Stinger Owners Fraternity, enjoy your new ride, sound like you got a pretty good deal, I hope you have many years of happy motoring.
Thanks for the welcome. Loving it so far. Booked in for the 10,000Km service. Taking the Stinger on the ferry to Tassie in Feb. Barely a straight road in the whole state - looking forward to some fun drives!

Hey GBgb, I just noticed your AFL team allegiance car specification. Perhaps I should add "MY19 Pies Black and White GT 3.3" to my profile! :D Ah, but then again, maybe not … Chuckle ...

Hey Doc, it started as a little joke when my wife & I said the colour was purple. The Car sales guy was horrified! :devil: so we of course continued. Then it was done more as a nod to a mate of mine, rather than my AFL allegiance! I have no particular leaning in that regard.
 
Bought Stinger GT for $63500 MY19 Snow White Pearl with Red Tone
Bi Exhaust
GT Mats
Slimline Plates
Full fuel Tank

Took the delivery of the car on Saturday and have already done 350km... so happy with the car... its an awesome car

Congratulations and welcome to the forum. You've hit the jackpot if you want to know everything Stinger. You have at your disposable a impeccable line of international experts who know the stinger inside out and upside down.:laugh: The "find" button is particularly handy if you're word searching a product or thing.

What's your location? If you could put that in with the avatar that would help in relation to future "meets"

very True, imagine the puzzled looks if I am in my Optima though, although people who aren't familiar with the Stinger might think it's some new rad brand :p

AV8R in " Stealth mode " owwww, that might be a familiar thing for a pilot .

Hi Psyherin. Welcome from a fellow newby. Outstanding choice of car colour! :thumbup:

A hidden feature of the Stinger - physical fitness improver. If I ever have no option and have to park in a public carpark, I park in the most remote and isolated car spot I can find away from all the careless door openers and "park by feel" parkers! Never walked so much! :laugh:
