Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

The wife saw a black Rafa parked at Penrith station. It was still there after work too.

Sadly, no-one would want to steal it. No offence to Rafa owners intended.

Maybe its been left there for some sort of experiment. Maybe a deterent or something?

Saw yesterday on Khartoum rd Nth Ryde a Dcb stinger, it wasn't a Gt i saw the wheels as it flashed by.

I see several on and off each day usually going over the Westgate Bridge in the morning then the same white, red and yellow ones going home in the Arvo. Never seen a silver in the wide except the demo I drove.

Yellow is rare in Aus.

2019 one sitting in Werribee Kia I had to wear shades my eyes were burning, not for me.

I thought yellow was discontinued here after MY18.

Happened to look in the KIA US web site and ive seen Silky silver is not made in the Gt spec, ive assumed its only available in the 2.0?

That's my guess.....had body colored side mirrors

I live in Southeast Florida, about 50 miles north of Miami, where one sees a lot of beautiful cars: Lambos, Ferraries, Bentleys, Rolles, BMWs, Audis, MBs, but I have yet to see a Stinger, no less a GT. Which is alright with me as I hope not to see a GT until I get my GT2 in August.

You in Boca?

Dunno mate, saw it in the show room mid February the day I picked up the demo, I assumed it was new in the center of the showroom on the podium, but could have been the 2018, but it had the Michelin pilot tyres so that would at least imply 2019 model. But you're right Yellow is not on Kia's web site now. If only they made a metallic gun metal grey, I'd have an accident looking at it.

No, close, Boynton Beach.

Not unusual as there are a lot of us older folks in this area. Hell, I'm 80 and just hoping I don't kill myself in the GT2 (LOL). Actually, I like RWD coupes or sport sedans. Coming from 325, z4, and C300 and started looking at the Audi coupe (found it too staid,) then the Alpha Romeo TiSport (fine car, but wanted more amenities and a little bigger rear), Camaro 3LT (good for its price, but can't see out of the back or rear...and you know what that means in our areas), then came the GT2. To hell with the badging, this car is a real sleeper. In fact, I hate telling anyone that's what I'm getting as I don't want to encourage anyone else to get this car....

Well I'm getting mine around the same time period.....I'll retire in May and go from there. ..I want to see if digital dash cluster is added to the MY20 before I commit.....I started a whole thread on what you wrote about ....what other cars made your final list? Pretty cool to read....well keep in touch!

Panthera grey is pretty close to your discription.

Yeah sadly not in GT mate. Breaks my heart, the Ceramic gray is ok if that's your thing, but it looks like primer grey to me. All my cars have been metallic grey or silver, with the exception of my first car which was Ford jewel green with a cream vinyl roof.

I agree, and not a wise decision by Kia not to bring the Gt here in Panthera metal but they did in Nz! I'd say it has cost them sales. I wonder if they've got wiser for the pending 2020 model?
