Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

Where‘s your shot of the HCR.

I didn't take a pic of the HCR.

This should help validate your sighting...

It seems like yesterday afternoon was "Stinger Day" in Berrima (Southern Highlands, 1hr 45min South West of Sydney). A HCR and then Orange in the same parking area but not at the same time.

Not to mention the 2 x Snow White Pearl and 1 x Silky Silver visitors lurking just around the corner

Hey mate, it’s just been bought to my attention by the Facebook fraternity that this Orange one we snapped is the new face lifted MY21, I thought I recognised the plates, they belong to KIA AU.
I didn’t even pick the rear lights & it has the new wheels we commented on...hahaha.

Yes, I think you are correct. I saw the different wheels but it didn't register with me. So we have the first sighting in Aus

How or why is the sun roof up at the back but down at the front? There’s nobody in the car so not opening or closing. Also they should’ve ditched the crap Kia badge at least on the rear and gone with the large stinger script. Surely by now they’ve realised most people change that out.

 

[Coast GT]

Oh also 15:30 yesterday, black GT parked on Main Rd Glendale outside of Dominos. Dash cam would’ve got it but I couldn’t be bothered downloading. I don’t normally even post for a one off sighting.

Sunroof is in tilt position.

 

[Coast GT]

Sunroof is in tilt position.

How do you do that? I’ve only ever had open or close? Also what’s the point as it opens at the front so you’d get no sun or air from having the back lifted. I’ve seen the odd photo like this before but never bothered to ask.

Just push the button directly up once, it’s great to let the heat out.

Thanks I’ll have a look at it. Never knew it was possible

We're all still learning...lol

I know about that, and tried it once to see if it works. I've never used the tilt since.

I wish there was a way to tilt the sunroof open but close the sunshade 90% - to allow the heat out while protecting the leather interior.

Yes the shade is either fully open or closed, just a thought why not get dark tint applied to the glass, that should create what you are after.

Agreed...
