Introduction - Happy to be here

[ltjammer]

Just purchased the beauty on Sunday. I have been looking for a car to replace my old 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee for about a year. A friend had mentioned this Stinger before, but I was like, "meh its a kia" and never really looked. Then I saw one go by on the street and started to research it more. Then I drove it and fell in love.

Took a couple of months to get numbers from about 15 different dealers in Florida. One dealer stood out from the start and I eventually purchased from them even though they were 2 hours away from me.

This car is great. Comfortable, quick and fun to drive. Just in the past two days so many people have come up to me asking what it is or that they cannot believe it is a Kia. It will be more confusing once the badges replaced that I purchased from Sal's store.

Glad to be here and look forward to being a part of the forum
