2nd Year Anniversary

[Lawrence Williams]

Not sure of actual date but the Kia Stinger is closing in on Two years on the road.....for the guys early into OUR ecosystem, where do you stand on your purchase? Obviously the 18MY had a few issues addressed but mechanically and fit/finish.....holding up as expected? I'm only 6 months into ownership but had an Optima for 8yrs without issues....

So what say you , First wave veterans?

 

[Stinger GT SS]

I’ve had mine over 2 years now with 32,600kms travelled.
No real issues to speak of, only hatch rattle & diff oil change through TSB’s.
The car runs beautifully & is well appointed, best decision I’ve made buying it & it turns out to be the best car I’ve owned.

I am within a week of 2 years of ownership. 24,743 km on the odometer and still smiling.
Other than for the replacement of brake rotors on all four wheels and the recall for the missing rubber grommet I had no reason to visit the dealer.
All oil changes, brake servicing and tire rotations were done by my local mechanic.
It may become a well used refrain, but this is truly the best car I bought in some 50 years of driving.

Make that three in a row: my best vehicle and in a class entirely by itself. I have nearly 30K miles in 21 months. As perfect as a manmade machine can be, is my experience. No troubles and only scheduled maintenance visits (other than having my rear sway bar put in). I've found the promo book hype entirely true.

Aside from mild hatch rattle, corrected by me fiddling the rubber bits, zero issues.

In 12 days I'll have had mine 2 years. I don't put anywhere near the miles on mine that most of you do [not quite "owned by an old lady who only drove it on Sundays," but pretty close], but still, I'm totally happy with it and have had no problems other than the wiring harness recall (kow). Yes, the best car I've owned in 46 years, and that's saying a lot since I've loved all of my cars. It should be the best, since the sticker price was $4k more than all my others combined, but that has a lot to do with inflation and the excessive length of time I hang on to a car.
