Those are good numbers, I think it exceeds what KIA had in mind of selling.

I think they're only counting YTD.

I don't know how to just include the chart--maybe one of you can help--but here's the reference:
Audi A5 / S5 US car sales figures
Basically, they sold 6,074 A5/S5 January through March, 2018, but that's all of them, not just the Sportback. I would guess that if only the Sportback figures were reported, Stinger is outselling Audi.

AND, Audi is WAY more of a "household name" than Kia. So Kia is really kicking butt here!

I am of mixed emotions... I kinda like not having lots of stingers on the road for the uniqueness factor.. I see lots of optimas, audis, etc. But I know the population has to grow to maintain and upgrade the platform... but darn, I like being unique (in a positive way.. already unique in many other ways... lol)

I've given up on being unique, since there's another Stinger the same color as mine which is always parked in the lot of a popular restaurant a mile from my home. Besides, the Stinger is so distinctively gorgeous, that it still will draw attention even when there are more of us. And as @KikoTheAkita said above, "Audi? - seen one, seen 'em all."

That's gotta suck. I have the only Ceramic silver Stinger in my area but I saw one on the delivery vehicle at the Kia dealership a few days ago. I just hope the buyer lives out of the immediate area or I'm going to have to spend some money to personalize mine more.

Well, I guess I knew mine would become common eventually. That's what happens when you buy white. I really did consider getting the ceramic silver that came in on the same truck as mine (someone else on the Forum bought it, I'm fairly certain), but I wanted a black interior and RWD, so I stuck with my original choice, white. Haven't regretted it a day. And while I haven't been able to check it out for sure, I don't think the other one locally is a GT, so I'm still queen of the hive in my neighborhood.

I literally went 2 months without seeing another Stinger on the road, and in the past week I've seen 2. Word is getting out!
I've seen one other in the neighborhood but i'm fairly certain it was a test drive from the local dealer.
As far as I know, I think i'm the first one in my town to own one. I had it parked outside the garage and my neighbor came over to check it out. I had never talked to the guy before but he came over to tell me that he loved the way it looked. he hadn't heard of the car before and after he saw it on my driveway, he looked it up online. He liked the looks that much.
