Greetings from NC, USA

[MoMoStinger]

Picked up last week...absolutely love it. Can't wait to meet some local owners.
2019 GT RWD, Micro Blue

Update: I did trade in a 2013 Mustang GT for this. We needed 4 doors for the kids, seem to be getting taller everyday.
We were 99% settled on a Q50 Red Sport...until this showed up.

Great choice! 4 doors and hatch make it very practical! I can carry my daughter's double bass AND 2 passengers.

Welcome aboard and congrats!

Oo! Powder coated OE GT rims. Way to go! Welcome, too.

I wish, previous owner actually just did a vinyl wrap on them. I'm okay with it for now, I like the added protection while we shop for new ones.

Hey MoMoStinger,

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new 2019 Micro Blue GT. You made a great choice with the Stinger and will find a lot of other people have actually made the same move from the mustang. If you are looking for any aftermarket products or accessories I suggest you check out our shop the www.k8stingerstore.com. Also, if you have any questions about your vehicle please reach out any time. I hope you are having a blast with the new family hauler.

- Daniel

MoMo, what part of NC are you in?

 

[Guest-88119]

MoMo, what part of NC are you in?

North Raleigh, closer to Wake Forest. Haven't seen too many around this area.

Welcome and congratulations. I was in the market for a Mustang before I heard of the Stinger. Family does change priorities. I think we got the best of both worlds

When they move out, I will certainly have one again. I had too much fun in mine. But I am very excited to be driving this daily.

Super cool. Congrats! I am in Apex and I run past the Kia dealership down here often. Did you buy yours from the Raleigh dealer? Was it used?

Good thing you didn’t get the Q50. The resell values of the Infiniti cars are absolutely abysmal. The 2020 Q50 cars were released yesterday and they finally added Apple CarPlay so it has destroyed the value of all of the cars before that.

I have a 2016 Q50 that I am about to turn in on lease at the end of the year. It is more than $5000 underwater already and that was with an initial $9,250 discount.

I have had 7 Infiniti vehicles before but this one will be my last.

The CARY Kia dealer has a ton of 2019 GT2 cars with massive discounts. In some cases the brand new GT2 cars are less than used cars because of the huge incentives that are only available on the new cars.

Beware of Hendricks Kia, Supposedly a lof of their Stingers have hail damage or have been repaired after suffering hail damage from that storm we had in May.

To my knowledge all of the GT2 hail damage cars are now gone. I have been tracking each individual VIN number and almost all of the Stingers on their lot have recent VIN numbers.

So, Guest-88119 is @MoMoStinger? How does that work?

It is when you reply from mobile instead of desktop and aren't logged in...whoops.

Welcome! Yes family pushed me to a Stinger... no more 2 door cars! I’m in Hillsborough and I think I have one of the first University Kia sold. Have only seen a few on the road and that’s usually around GSO.

 

[Kamauxx]

What's GSO?

 

[VetteNZMan]

Greensboro/ PTI airport area, I commute every day but not with Stinger..

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Congratulations on your Stinger! How do you like it compared to the Mustang GT?

Got my micro blue base from University Kia. Good to see some more locals around here.
