Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

OMG, that shopping trolley makes me extremely nervous.

Haha me too, I personally wouldn't be parking there, I avoid trolleys like the plague

And shopping centre carparks if I can avoid them

4pm Saturday, Snow White Pearl parked on Kurrawyba Ave Terrigal, outside the Crowne Plaza Hotel. Based on the personalised plates, not one I’ve seen before.

On the way home yesterday , parked white Gt on Balaclava rd ,Eastwood 4.40pm. Later Ceramic grey Eastbound on M4 at Prospect at 5.15pm. So 2 seen without even looking.

OMG, that shopping trolley makes me extremely nervous.

The parking stanchion isn't doing its job; and they threaten to scrape the underside. So, the only policy is to stop short of ALL overhanging stanchions; that way it also blocks any rolling shopping carts on the other side.

Who ever you are who was driving on Preston this evening (14th) and gave me the head nod and wave good to see you and I like the metallic silver!

... Takes some big brass ones to ride through that with no protection, especially with the radiant heat. Full credit to the police and firefighters risking their lives to protect the community ...

Fully prepped, Firefighters have our PPE's (Personal Protective Envelope). While nothing is fireproof, it does offer us a measured degree of protection.

5:15pm yesterday an Aurora Black headed north on the Pacific Highway at Ourimbah (passing the train station). First black one I’ve seen in a while.

Yesterday 5.40pm M4 Orchard Hills Micro blue gt with after market wheels YIG--B. Heading west. Looked pretty good cruising in the middle line as I over took him in the mighty 3 cyl 1 litre turbo fiesta . My hands clenched on steering wheel Mantis style with Mr Peabody pose..

I recently saw a red Stinger nearby my home, ~5th one since purchasing my car in May.

Alternatively, in that same amount of time I've seen about three gazillion BMW's/Audi's.

That's very informative....care to share where you're located?

From what I can ascertain he's one of 300 million odd. Could be in anyone of 52 states but what the heck we're smart people .

Stab in the dark he's got a Awd gt I'm plumping for a Northern state.

Not that I'm claiming him for NorCal (we're not against rebadging ), but I have AWD and could say exactly the same as him: I've seen 4 Stingers anywhere (other than a dealer) over the last 6+ months, and tons of Audi and BMW - I probably see 10 M3s for every Stinger. We've got almost anything you could want here.. In the last 6 months, I've probably seen more ORIGINAL Beetles (last sold new here over 40 years ago) than Stingers. Or Ferraris. Or any number of other somewhat-rare cars like Alfa, Maseratti, Camavette ZL1/Z06, etc.

And my colleagues in SoCal probably laugh at that list .

Why AWD when we never get snow? To help put the power down on not-so-great roads, including when dusty or wet.. It's a daily driver, not a weekend toy.

A sigh of relief for common sense & reason. Well said.

@19GT-AWD You could at least put a colored marker on that map. Kia Stinger YOHB map That would be cool. Plus One for the Team.

It was parked, I was driving in opposite direction.

Bought my Stinger Jan 2018. First 2 Stingers spotted were blue 2.0s ... then spotted my dumbed down twin (spotted was a GT1, I have a GT2) in my neighborhood! Turned around and knocked on the door of the house it was parked in front of to tell them how I admire their car. Unfortunately, no answer. I will now eye check that house until successfully reeling in the owner. Hope she is beautiful and available!

Have spotted a ceramic grey a couple of times in my neighborhood, while dropping kids off at school (daughter said - that looks like daddy's car!), and just tonight, a white GTx (RWD, I think), all quite close to my house..
