DFW Texas Stinger on the Loose...

[will20four]

Hello. I had a new 2012 Optima SX that I had modded. I saw the Stinger and had been following it till I traded the Optima in for a Stinger GT. I am part of the Lone Star KDM club to represent the Korean cars at shows or meets. Great seeing the reactions to "That's A Kia?" between the Optima to the Stinger. Love having a car most never see fixed up. I have already debadged the rear Stinger & GT badges. Added mud guards and trunk mat so far. Badges have been ordered and looking at Intake/exhaust in near future. Already a pretty rounded out car so not planning on much for this car.

Nice upgrade! Us Optima owners have been wanting KIA to give us more power and performance in the Optima, instead they give us the Stinger. Yeah, we’ll take it! Plan on keeping my Optima and ditching the Volvo for the Stinger. Enjoy your new ride!

G’Day @K8wiljg248824 & welcome to the club I love your choice in colour, looks good. Been to DFW in 2016, wife & I love the Grand Prarire area, nice part of the world. I hope you really enjoy the car & what it has to offer.
