Hello from TN!

[Yellow Jacket]

Hi all!
My wife and I just purchased our Limited GT last week. Plans are to keep it relatively stock. Maybe intake and exhaust, plus KDM cosmetic stuff. We absolutely love it so far. Happy to be here and look forward to learning more about this platform.

Traded in my sc'd SRT Charger for the Stinger. It never got driven and my wife liked the yellow, so here we are!

Also in our stable: '13 Veloster Turbo (my son's), '96 Bronco, '96 Civic (my daily), and '17 Focus RS (track toy).

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Congratulations on your Stinger GT! How does the power compare to your supercharged SRT? I'm guessing it's not quite up to par in the performance department. But all around otherwise probably a very nice upgrade. I'm glad you found us!

Completely different animal. Not really a fair comparison since my Charger was making double the power of the Stinger. That being said, it's a much nicer vehicle than my Dodge was; granted it was an '08, so the features on the Kia are light years more advanced.

I'm going to guess the Stinger is much better in the "fun to drive" area with great handling. You might miss the extreme acceleration of the Charger for a while...

Welcome to the hive and congrats on your new Stinger! You'll find plenty of like-minded enthusiasts who are also very helpful and friendly on this forum! There are a number of us with musclecar backgrounds here. And while the sound of an angry V8 is very hard to beat, you'll find your new sexy beast makes up for it in so many other ways

Well, my RS would kill my charger in a (short) drag race, so I'm not missing it too much. I only had 25k on the SRT, so it's not like I drove it very much anyway.
