2022 Kia Stinger Full America Info!!

[Devin]

Do you have interior shots? Seats are diamond quilted or chain watch stil?

Not yet, but I can grab some.

I'm color blind, so I'll ask my wife

I'll grab some night shots of the rear tonight. I haven't even seen that yet.

That would be awesome thank you look forward to seeing them.

Just looks like standard perf to me. I didn't look at the GT2 though.





And the rest of it.







I think it is funny how the mirrors greet me when I walk up to it with the keys in my pocket. I'll have to not have them on me when doing yard work.

Thank you. Look forward to the night pictures of that LED single tail lamp

Same seats on the GT2 at the dealer

Thought the cup holder has a lid? Maybe just GT2?

GT1 seats are the old GT seats (non Napa Leather ) and GT2 seats seem to be the refreshed Napa Leather Europeen / Australlia seats with new chain watch design.

Pretty sure that's just other countries, no cover on any US model, for whatever reason haha.

WOW what an interior! Very nice!

Interesting. The cover I could actually care less. I have a cover on my current car and it’s open 99.9% of the time. I think I prefer the rectangle shape over the 8 shape though. No biggie.

The pic I took of the perf detail is on the GT2. I couldn't really tell the difference between my seats and the GT2, though I'm not familiar with the chain watch.

The new badging look very good and seem to be the best setup. New Kia front and airbag cover of the steering wheel and Stinger script on the back of the car!

Look at your seats the stichings are going fully across the seat bench to the bolsters. GT2 seats have a middle layer and offset stiching on the side.


Look at the watch bracelet with the middle portion offset from the side

The OPs window sticker on the first post says chain stitch on GT2. Yours doesn’t have that so now I’m curious lol

His car a GT1 you see it by the seats and non driveby wire type gear selector.

Funny how the new Kia emblem/logo is going to become the new and common badge... which will make it less special and unique... I do really like the way the new Kia badge looks... I dare say I like it even more than the "E" or "Stinger" badges...

I remember back when the new C7 came out everyone was losing their minds back where I used to live in the DMV (Virginia, Maryland, DC) but after just one year they became so common nobody would even bat an eye lmfao

saying you went with that smaller engine, whether 2.0L or 2.5L because it is lighter and more "nimble" than larger engine is somewhat of a joke.

Figured you'd say that.......all good......

Believe it or not, this is one of the main reasons the "Supra" folks are even considering the 2.0 over the 3.0....it is the better "mod" car....yes, you don't get the true "weight" savings in the 2.5 Stinger that you do in the 2.0 Supra, but, we "are" talking about a car with two less doors/seats......with a little cash thrown at a 2.5 Stinger, the added performance will make the lack of extra pounds noticable vs throwing that "same" amount of cash at the 3.3...see below: best argument on the web for the 2.0 Supra....guy knows what he is talking about....some of the same "principles" he refers to, would apply to the 2.5 Stinger....but a WRX owner would know that.....

I’m talking about the camera in the dash when you turn in the blinker.

This is confirmed on the top trim for 2022 Stinger
