Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

[Joseph Spiegel]

Just saw a red GT, my twin, going south on Sawtelle Blvd. in West Los Angeles. About 3:50pm. I waved but we passed to quickly to see any reaction. Nice care there!

Yellow has been duscontinued at the same time as the US. When i checked the autotrader there was 23 for sale including 2 new unsold 2018 models.

You can bet the yellow ones @Flameangel husband saw were being sent to NSW to be sold i believe our market is the strongest in Australia. I would not be surprised if my dealer get some as it is the biggest selling Kia dealer in the country.
I might pop in there tomorrow for a chat.

I'm at Blacktown Kia now and there's a yellow "demo" that just sold. They say it's the only one that was available in NSW. Was service managers drive and got repainted 3 times until he was entirely happy.

Thats strange? That would have been the car that was offered to me, that was the dealers original demo? I should have test driven it but the ar#ehole service manager cancelled all pre booked test drives while he took it to the airport. He then purchased the vehicle and i was subsequently told it was written off! He then procured a Black one. So how did the yellow one get resurrected? I must assume they had a second yellow demo which the service manager also bought again later?

My hubby whilst at work in his Tanker at Wallan BP saw a car carrier with 7 Stingers on board all yellow, heading to NSW.

When I went there in May last year we were talking in general and I was shown a pic of their yellow demo that had supposedly been written off on a test drive. The one I saw this morning is a MY18 and has a later number plate than mine. I really don't know. If the former was a statutory total loss it could not have been repaired and registered again.

That service manager you may or may not be aware came along to our south coast drive. He had a Black Stinger, he's in the facebook group photo on the left hand side.

On another note. Took my son to soccer training 5 minutes up the hill , on the way back i saw the mandatory Gt Stinger. DWH i may have since this one once before.

Saw an Atomic Blue (Micro Blue) on the 401 stuck in line trying to take the off-ramp onto the Weston Collector. Driver was a teeny-tiny lady. Good combo!

Spotted a Black Premium looking clean this morning in Hamilton NJ, he gave a quick beep.

It's still morning here, but during my earlier walk I didn't see a Stinger, but I just had to mention I saw a Lime Green Nissan GT-R R35, haven't seen one in over a year maybe more, then within 5 minutes I see a Ferrari 458, it's amazing how fast they can travel , and look like their standing still, well I must admit it was sitting atop a flat bed tow truck....

 

[jondyer]

I'm convinced that everyone else in South Florida with a Stinger that I've seen is a bit "prickly".

Seen a nice black one in Boynton Beach today. Waved and all that.... He just gave me the stinkeye. Must be from New York, lol.

I did see another yesterday on Forest Hill, they sat beside me at the light. The tint was too dark so I dunno if they waved back.

 

[MrSmoofy]

Saw my second one today was black looked like it had never been washed

 

[ShannonC]

He said a while back that where he works sometimes puts up Old Glory as his location, for some mysterious reason. He's advocated for removal of the location flags because they are buggy. But so far, nothing.

It's about 3pm, was walking and only about 100 metres from home, I see a HiChroma Red StingerGT roll up to the traffic lights , during the last week, i have seen 3 red Stingers, one white and one black, all within 1 klm of home, 3 weeks ago I saw my first DeepChromaBlue parked, but have never seen a Sunset Yellow, Panthera Metal or Micro Blue on the road, in fact Micro Blue is the only colour I have not seen in person.

I got accosted by a new White GT today entering the Westgate Freeway sadly we couldn't battle, traffic was 40km/h then Ceramic Grey number 1 I see fairly regularly on wurundjeri way but then a new Black 330si stuck on Dudley Street car park, at least we exchanged a sagely nod. Their bloody everywhere now. I know it's not in the wild, but there's still a new 2018 Yellow GT sitting in the middle of Werribee Kia showroom.

A hi chroma red one has appeared in my area. I frequently see two driving around, no one on this forum appears to be in CT however.
