Aftermarket Recommendations and negotiations with dealers

[Jasesuares7]

Hi guys! I am going in to Kia to order my new Stinger GT tomorrow! I have decided on Pearl white with red interior. I know for sure i want a Bi-Modal exhaust on my car. Was hoping Stinger owners could share their experience with the car thus far and recommend what aftermarket additions i should prepare for. And also if you share your experience with Kia dealers and any advice it would be greatly appreciated.

Howdy and welcome, i opted for paint and leather protection + window tinting. Going to hold off on exhaust until more options become available. Had the car 4 months.

Thanks mate! What exactly do you mean by more options for the exhaust?

Well as its a new car and kia are involved with the Bi-modial exhaust and the price therefore is at a premium. I'd rather wait until there's more value in the market. $2,600 for sound and no more added horse power is a bit on the rich side. I've so far heard better exhausts eg. Ark grip, x -force, borla, mbr and there's more. How long before you get the car? Whites pretty popular.

You make a good point! I will definitely consider that, I can always get the exhaust installed at another time. I'm still yet to hear the other exhausts in person. Well I'm going in to the dealer to sort things out tomorrow so will know after tomorrow how long till i get it. I chose the white as it stands out quite well with the red interior. A close second for the color choice would be ceramic grey.

Those two colour choices really show the sporty sillhoutte of the stinger. You'll notice this if you see different colours together. What state are you in? Some dealers have stock. White is normally thw most available.

I'm in NSW, i saw the white and grey in person. Was a hard choice to make between the two in the end. Just going back to the Borla exhaust for a second, does a non Kia exhaust void the warranty? I saw a few vids and it sounds fantastic.

So far only bi-modial involving kia is warranted. Basically they organise it. When i was at Kia Penrith they had a ceramic grey, white and yellow for sale last week. So i assume there wasnt a wait for supply. Maybe the red leather adds a wait?
