I drive and sell Stingers

[Franklin Bing]

Hi, I'm new here but I've been around Kias for about 7 years - selling them mostly. and now I'm a proud new owner of a ceramic silver GT. I can answer dealer and Kia related questions pretty well.

I'm in the southern California area and my store just got one of the limited edition Sunset Yellow Stingers. It looks great.

Best regards

Which version did u get?

 

[Franklin Bing]

GT base rwd. no options, $39k MSRP. I've only got a couple hundred miles on it. I did a 3 year lease with 15k miles.

Sorry I meant which version of the limited do you have for sale?

 

[Franklin Bing]

it's either the same thing or the base GT with drivewise package. either way, MSRP is $40,925

Welcome to the forums!

I'm sure owning one helps you sell them even more, give personal experiences and real feedback to potential customers

Welcome . I have a question on the new Yellow LTD , is there anything other than the color and Limited badge to justify Limited ?? If it is seems like a real missed opportunity . They could have positioned this as the "signature" Stinger , they could have done a unique badge , numbered them etc etc ?? Thanks

As far as I know there is no real difference from the regular stinger, aside from the Color and badges. I agree that it was a missed oportunity from Kia to set it apart from others.

Thats too bad KIA US marketing really seem to be "off" ..............

I'll have to take another look but as far as I know it's just the badge and color. that being said, it's one of the few cars with a "limited" badge that's actually, well, limited.

I'll bet there are a dozen Limited badges for sale on ebay , again a real missed opportunity

 

[mldavis2]

Yeah, how many cars and UV's do you see with "Limited" on them? Limited only to the number they can sell.....

 

[RUGGLES99]

so how much is the limited?

 

[Franklin Bing]

the one we have is $40,925 MSRP. its a base GT with drivewise I believe. I can double check tomorrow when I'm at the store.

I have not heard of a base gt with drivewise yet for the limited model. Would be a great combo and a great price if it really does have the drivewise package.

If it is a base gt rwd it should have lsd.

 

[mldavis2]

If it is a base gt rwd it should have lsd.

I think only the GT2 RWD gets LSD, nothing else, and of course AWD doesn't need it.

I have heard conflicting info as I was informed the rwd in both the gt and gt2 have lsd on the limited. It is crazy that Kia has not done any marketing to confirm anything for the limited.
