Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

[Fred Pahlke]

Had my Yellow GT2 for a month and half here in the OKC metro and have yet to see one. I know my dealership has sold three, as I was #3. As for the other two KIA dealerships in the metro, I have no idea how many they have sold, but not many. The only other Yellow in this area, a GT1, has not been sold yet.

I bought my GT 2 lease to own on April 19 at Westside KIA. Have Not seen any Stingers in Houston yet. Have seen a Stinger in San Antonio 2 weeks ago

Congrats on your new Stinger and welcome to the Hive!

I'm from the Fedway area too! While shopping at Bellevue I spotted 3 on the road on the same day, but that's it. I'm looking to buy a Stinger but I think I'll wait a few more months to see if there's any more discounts. I can't believe Sunset Kia is marking up their Stingers, though, when everyone else is staying at msrp or providing a discount.

Just returned from a road trip from SW Missouri to Kalamazoo, Michigan and back. No Stingers sighted. I had about six BMW drivers pace me trying to get a look, a few Audi drivers doing a double-take, and one motorcyclist who nearly lost it as he passed me and turned around the check out the front of my car.

Just bought mine yesterday (only a black premium though) and I live in Dunwoody so keep an eye out on 285!

I don't get on 285 much anymore (thank a merciful God, because it used to be my daily commute). If you ever see a blue one in Alpharetta or Marietta, though, it's probably me. I still haven't seen another one.

Congrats on your car!

Congrats on yours too. I may have seen you driving on Piedmont Rd a few weeks ago.... enjoy!

I've only seen 3. 2 Red, and 1 Gray here in AZ.

 

[LeoDragon]

I've had mine for 2 months and have not seen one. I know they have sold a few at my dealership. Haven't crossed paths with another one yet.

Been looking for another in the Spokane Washington area

Came out of my appointment with Dr and saw a GT same colour as mine. Ran over as it drove off as I thought some one had stolen my car! Lol first one I’ve seen in months.

Finally saw one in the Asheville NC area Sunday heading East on I26 around midday......a micro blue base. Shout out if you’re reading here.......

Had mine for a month and have only seen Red GT in the Doral,FL area while at work. Haven't seen any in my home area which is Miami Lakes/Hialeah.

Saw a red one last night, those tail lights are a give away. From seeing very few I'm now seeing quite a few maybe 3 a week. Then again Western Sydney is the most populated part of Aust.

Saw a red GT in the Walmart parking lot in my area ~2 weeks ago. Small city of 11k, so I was surprised to even see one.

Guy seems like an ass, was in Handicap parking with no tags. But the thing was beautiful, set my mind on driving out to the city to buy one this weekend (Happy Birthday, me!). Aiming for the Blue GT, but everyone says it looks different in person than in pictures, so we'll see.

With a bad driving video and now this anecdote I hope Stinger drivers don't get a bad reputation...

For real.

My only hope is that it was an owner who had handicap plates, and they were just on their temps. I'll be driving a different color, so hopefully no confusion. I'd hate to get keyed because someone thought I was Stinger #1.

Was it a White GT2? I was in SA for Fiesta week!

 

[Bluefuziion]

Saw a black one going up the CA 405N yesterday (05/15/2018) around 6pm. The black is so nice! Was de-baged just to show the STINGER emblem.

In one month of ownership in Los Angeles, I have seen only two other Stingers on the road; both were blue, like my GT2 AWD baby. One southbound in the fast lane of the 5 Fwy north of dodger Stadium....I was northbound in the fast lane, so we went by very quickly, couldn't tell the spec., no time to wave. Second one, my wife and I were eating in a Chinese restaurant on Valley in Alhambra. Mine was parked right out front of the panoramic windows. Saw an identical blue Stinger go by on same side, passing right by mine. Rather surreal. I yelled happily, startled the wife and staff (restaurant was almost empty at early hour). If'n y'all are in L.A., and see a blue GT2 AWD go by with two Dodger flags on it as well as Dodger plate frames and LA badge, that will likely be me. Give a honk and wave (if safe to do so) and I will wave back!
