Hey'o - new to forum.

Pickin' up our 2019 Stinger GT Limited this upcomin' Thursday (just two more sleeps, heh). This'll be the wife and I's sixth Kia we've owned over the years.

Lookin' forward to checkin' out the forum. Cheers from Niagara Falls, Canada.

Welcome

Howdy and welcome. I just gave mine a bath; really enjoy keeping her clean and smooth and shiny. That never happened before this car. Even sitting at stop lights is enjoyable because I am inside my soundroom.

Thanks.

"Soundroom" sounds about right. I always loved the Infinity system in my Optima, but lookin' forward to cleaning out some earwax with the Harmon-Kardon in the Stinger.

Thanks for the greets.

We got it in charcoal gray. I had my eye on the new ascot green...but we settled on the used 2019 since we got such a sweet deal on her. Pics are on the agenda for sure.

charcoal gray

Not seeing that one. Are you referring to Panthera Metal / Thunder Grey?

Hello and welcome and congrats!!

Btw Niagara Falls, whether from the Canadian or the US side, is so gosh darn beautiful!

Not sure of the catalogue name - I just refer to it as charcoal gray.

Definitely a scenic part of the province.

Yep that's the Panthera metal colour. Nice clear shot of the car too. Looks brand new too. I do love it in that colour which was not available when I bought mine. Welcome and congrats.

Now I know the official color name, lol...thanks. Just a dealer shot, of course in their parking lot - I hope to get some much better shots in the next few weeks. Actually the color is almost identical to the Optima I'm trading in...so neighbours will hafta' look twice to notice it's not the Optima in the driveway. Thanks for the welcome.

Welcome to the forums

Would have loved to gotten Panthera, but I live in the desert. Dark colors are double undesired between the heat raising the interior car temp even more, and the dust making it look dirty 48 seconds after washing it.

Can't blame ya'...the dark panthera wouldn't be great in your climate. Even the street dust here makes it a chore to keep clean much of the time.

that's a huge reason I went with a white exterior... although white is much harder to keep clean than silver/gray I have found
