We are down to the wire! What do you think I'll be in next?

Slam that K900 , 20 bucks !!
 
I do miss my K900 and the new one is sweet, the G70 is nice but doesn’t stand out to me. If I was in your position, the Stinger would be the winner, no regrets.
 
Noticed the vibration issue on the new car on the way home. There was a familiar but different feeling about the 2019. Familiar as in everything looks pretty much the same but different as in extra buttons and things in places that are unfamiliar and nice to have. The first thing was the 360 camera, (wait, what's this extra button here, need to put my glasses on), the sound system sounded louder (for the brief time I had it on) and the cabin sounded a bit quieter than I recall in the other car. Now, it might be that it was late at night and not too many cars on the road. Cruised at 70 for a bit, on good roads and it was just so smooth and tight. The Michelin X-ICE XI3 was quiet for a tire with aggressive tread pattern, as noted in TR's videos. It was in the low teens last night and the heat was working overtime, keeping the cabin comfortable. I'll spend some time getting to know this one over the weekend.

Sensible choice.

Did your other one have the heated steering wheel? Love mine, I know we're not brutal cold but it is nice to take the chill off and it works quickly.

How many miles are on it? Are you talking about vibration in the brakes?

The extra quietness may be because it's new. My car gets louder every time I drive it. There's always new squeaks and rattles cropping up. When it was new that wasn't an issue. Now every time I drive with the volume down/radio off I start thinking about trading it in.
 
It was at 116 miles when I got it. The last one was noisy when I got it, they had to adjust the door and there was some sort of wind buffeting sound between 30-40 mph, this one didn't exhibit that. Trade it. I did that with my Optima's and with the 2017 changes and updates, it ended up being quieter and much better to drive than the 2012 or 2014, I had prior.
 
Thanks! Even if I got another 3.3T (which was the plan), I would still be here. I did after all purchase winter wheel and tires based on the Stinger platform before getting a car.
