• 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!

MY21 Aussie Release Date

Hi guys/girls, do any of you remember if Silky Silver with red interior is still available on the facelift models?
I remember seeing silver available - and pretty much every colour is available with red interior. Just depends on timeframes and how long it will take to get in.

Great - thanks for your help!

I’ve been given less than zero info. All I gave was grey with black interior 21 model, they said it could happen and I paid a deposit.

Only thing I’ve been told since is it’s ‘the latest one’ but they don’t have all the details (this was probably 3 weeks ago).

Sorry I can’t be of more help. I never asked about red interior, I’m in the minority with it not being for me.

I am pretty sure that was an option.

So got a call from the dealer yesterday and my car is ready for pickup next week, 3 and a bit weeks early. Was told its the only ceramic grey with red leather in NSW that arrived and he managed to secure it for me. Its going to be a good week next week!
 
Thanks for the info :) You car looks great - I had shortlisted the SF04 but leaning toward the SF06. What size tyres are you running?

Funny you mention Autocraze, went to see them earlier in the week and was not really impressed with their service. Pretty much told me to take a look at the Koya website colour options. I thought point of a showroom is to see actual wheels, colours, samples. Didn't seem like they really knew much apart from the standard colours. Didn't even take the rim out and put it against my car.

I was wanting something that matched the dark/tinted chrome of the side mirrors and trim. Can't pick between the GTR Grey, Ultra Black Chrome or Tinted Black. Figured I'll call Koya and ask them to send me a sample if they can (even if it costs me a bit of $ worth it to get the colour I want).
I’m running Front 245 & Rear 275. Yes this was the issue I had was colour, I wanted Gunmetal Grey, ended up with GTR Grey which is virtually black, I was not happy & they wanted to charge me more to fix it, took a month of arguing & threatening with Fair Trading that they sent them back & I now have Kingsport Grey, still darker than Gunmetal but I’ll live with it, this is Koya’s downfall colours on their website do not represent what you actually get.
Try Ozzy Tyres & friend of mine got Vertini RF1.1 gloss black with tint face same width but in 20” with same tyres Falken & widths as mine, good price & looks great in 20” gives it that lowered look without lowering.

they have changed some of the buttons on the steering wheel. Favourite (star) and Lane Keep assist. Lane keep assist has also been upgraded so that it keeps the car closer to the centre of the lane.

Nice, also the bottom section is brushed metal, not gloss black like previous years.
 
I ordered the same colour as yours with red interior ,I was told it was the only colour combination arriving mid December.. And I believed them
Which dealership? Mine is North Gosford. I really hope this isn’t as hopelessly unorganised as it seems.

Thanks for the heads up. Sounds like I am going to have a similar experience on colour. I want to stay at 19”. Less choice and usually similar price to 20” but I don’t want to give up any tyre profile.

I’m running F 245/35/19 & R 275/30/19 all at 40psi & I have noticed no ride quality difference from OE of F 40 & R 35.

My bad, didn’t explain muself properly. I was talking about 19” vs 20”.

I think I’ll be getting same tyres as yours. Sounds like a good setup. Thanks.

I am new here & have just put a deposit on a 2021 GT Stinger in Deep Chroma Blue with red interior. The dealer tells me it’s the only one of this combo on the next boat due 15/12. I will keep my fingers crossed that he is not full of crap.
You will probably all get a kick out of the fact that I am upgrading from my current car which is a 10 year old pink Barina Spark.
Definitely an upgrade then. Welcome. :unsure:

In fact I believe that Lane Keep Assist is still as before which is a reactive security mesure when you reach a lane and you do not have your blinkers on it will pull you back in the lane. I believe it works in all type of roads and can work even with Lane Follow Assist is not activated.

Lane Follow Assist is the new stuff wich is actively keeping you centered in the lane. I am not sure if can be activated in all type of roads.

Highway driving assistant (also new) is combining Lane Follow Assist, Radar cruize control, GPS data for a safe semi auto driving and this only works on highways. It can even reduce your speed before a pronounced curve.
