Calling all early current owners.

[Stinger GT SS]

It’s amazing how time flies, it’s 7 years since Kia announced the release of the Stinger & since then a lot of the early owners have sold them & moved on so it got me thinking how many early owners still have them.
I for one still have mine, ordered Oct. 2017 & took delivery Nov. 2017, I am also one of the first of 250 sold that year in Australia, it been a great car, nothing compares to it for the price & I have no plans at the moment to sell even though the warranty runs out this November (AU Kia get 7 years unlimited kilometre warranty).
I’m interested to hear from any early owners that still have the Stinger, & how your ownership journey has been.

My GT1 was made six years ago last month. I am the original owner. The experience has been 99 percent flawless. so much so that we now have two of them, both very satisfying as to quality and fun driving experience. the 2019 is a premium. I have no plans at all or desire to switch out either car.

Got mine May 2019.
Such goods times.
Driving the car still feels as exciting as the first time behind the wheel.
Nothing compares to the value provided by the Stinger.

2019 GTS still like new. 11,750 miles. All stock just like it left the showroom.

I got mine on Nov 22, It was cold as hell in NY. Currently at 6000 miles, about to do my second oil change. Althought I'm a bit concerned on the recall.

2019 Stinger GT, bought it new 5 years ago this month. Cars been awesome, at 60k almost. Only complaints I’ve had were little rattles over the years, fixed them all myself mostly (sunroof on hot days)

I am the original owner of my Ceramic Silver/Red 2019 GT1 which I purchased in August 2019. It now has just over 53k of nearly 99% flawless and enjoyable miles. It has been a fantastic daily driver! I look forward to many more years of enjoyable driving.

I got mine Jan 2019. I'm at 187k km. Still love it and don't plan to move on any time soon.

 

[AWDGT2]

I bought a 2019 in 2018, it has 37k, still running strong. Then I bought a 2024 last year and still drive them both wouldn't sell or trade either one

I had a 2018 GT and upgraded later to a 2022 GT1; and yes I still tell people it’s a Kia. Love the car and wished the dealership treated and marketed the Stinger like the Telliride.

Late adopter here. 2023 GT2 AWD. I have all of 10K miles on it now. I couldn't be happier with it. Love driving the car!

I've been around since 2018 and now onto my 2023. Basically, I went in 2018 to see what the hubbub was all about and fell in the love with the one I got (showroom floor 2018 Silky Silver GT2). I then got in a "totaled" accident in 2023 and couldn't find any other car I loved better (in the bang for the buck realm). Sooo... showroom floor 2023 black GT2, which I got wrapped. It's all lovely.
