HI guys,

Just wanted to say hi and let you guys know I'm now a proud owner of a 2018 White Kia Stinger GT. I I purchased it from National Capital Kia and Dan was an excellent person to deal with. Can't wait put in the exhaust and half roof rap for the car. I'm so happy with the car, and I if you told me 3 years ago I would be driving a Kia I would of told you you're crazy. But this car has changed my perception of the brand.

Pat

Congrats on the new ride!
I too am hoping to join the Stinger club in the next month or two.
 
Congrats @Pat Eung. The stinger certainly does change people's perception if Kia!

I had to go to a uni the other day for work and when I pulled up had a guy eye ball my car and when I walked passed him he stopped me and said "what the he'll is that?!" Told him it was a kia stinger, he just gave me a look of 'kia no way! Haha

G’day, welcome to the forum & congratulations on your new Stinger you won’t be disappointed, I’ve had mine almost 2 years & it still puts a smile on my face everyday.

Welcome and congrats, enjoy your new ride :)
 
Congratulations and welcome. Nice choice in colour :)
 
Howdy, Pat. The Stinger is a game changer, alright. Kia intended it that way and they succeeded. Kia? Never even entered as a thought until this car.
 
Welcome Pat...you won't be disappointed with your choice of car.
 
Welcome aboard Pat. You’re not the first person to be surprised by this car and you won’t be the last.

Welcome Pat, I am in Canberra too with a Pearl White Stinger. Do you follow the basketball? The Canberra Capitals have a player called "KIA Nurse" I keep wondering why her parents chose that given name.
Enjoy the drives around town and the countryside

Hi Leo no I'm in Sydney but negotiated everything over the phone with Dan and caught a one way train ride to pick up the car. I use to play basket before I became a dad and have artristis on my knee. I watch mostly NBA because I've gotten off mainstream TV and just watch NBA highlights on YouTube. It was a great drive back to Sydney from Canberra. My very interesting fact about the NBL player's name there lol

Well, its been an exciting weekend for me. I am now in purchasing mode! Visited a couple of dealers on Saturday and went for some test drives. Weather wasn't great with it hosing down here in Melbourne, but at least I got to check out how the wipers worked! Getting close to a purchase but still have a bit more work to do. Looking at a Neon Orange GT with the Bi Modal plus the usual floor mats. Trading in my current 3 YO XT Forester as part of the deal. The plan is to have it all done by the end of the month. Wish me luck!

Good luck. Sounds like a good choice especially with the exhaust.
 
Good luck. I think the neon Orange I've heard have to be pre-ordered from the Factory?

Good luck, I hope you get a good deal, remember you have the power in the negotiations while you hold the cash, once you pay it’s all over in the bargain stakes so play hard & don’t hold back when asking for extras/accessories.
