Kia Stinger - Australia discussions (pre-release)

Harman/Kardon®7 audio system pumps out 720 watts through an external amplifier to provide crystal-clear music. With 15 speakers and Kia’s first under-seat mounted subwoofers....

But isn't that for the 15 speaker system and not the base system I was asking about?

When it comes to sound systems i usually use my ears lol

...sorry you're right, not sure then??

Not to be impolite but "we don't care".....we're (can I use the word masturbating in this forum???) over the 15 speaker version!!!!

 

[davebo]

Gosh I'd love to do that but what are the odds any dealerships near me get demo Stingers without all the expensive options?

That sounds like a lot of fun but I guess to get worked up over the better system I need more info on the alternative so I know the difference. For now I guess I'm just masturbating over the V6tt since I know the difference between that and the 2.0t.

@Madman the God's frown upon your tabooness...

Ya know... General Motors has been testing (for years now) a 1000 horsepower 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine. And we all know what the 2.0T was capable of in those old horse and carriage Eagle Talons and Mitsubishi Eclipses. Not that everyone wants to tune their vehicle but don't underestimate the 2.0!

My bet is they'll have the Gt model as they all want to up sell. I went in to by the 3.3 si and ended up buying the gt. They turned my head with bells and whistles...those wicked dealers lol.

Thanks for the post. Regular unleaded E10 compatible is surprising.

My Gods endorse it - but I will behave (try)....

Is anyone interested in a Sunset Yellow Stinger GT with Red Nappa leather?
It will be the only one in Australia as it was ordered by my dealer before KMA made the Red Nappa leather unavailable with the Sunset Yellow.
It is the first batch and is available in early October for delivery. Probably a good opportunity to get an original combo.

I know the dealer in Blacktown Nsw has ordered a yellow gt as his demo model

I'm sure we'd be seeing lots of Sunset Yellow but he said that his order was the only one with the Red Nappa leather in Australia. The Yellow and Red combination is not available to be ordered since the first batch was ordered and all other current and future orders will have Black interior only.
Apparently all the other dealerships are aware of his "strange" colour choice, but the flip side it's one of a kind.

Hats off to him for his individuality. At the moment spewn as i payed an extra charge for deep chroma blue in the gt as with white it was listed as the extra purchase colours. But now i see from that link brochure DCB appears standard? And the black and white are the premium colours?

 

[davebo]

That's my whole dilemma because I want Sunset Yellow, and I want red interior, but I don't really want them together. Looks like that link just has stock photos of different cars, but if anyone finds any photos of the actual car they get I'd love to see them, even though I'm in the USA and I assume we won't be allowed to get that combination either.

If marco oz is correct then the dealer "down" in Nsw should have yellow one shortly. Was told 17 Oct. If i remember ill take some snaps and post when im there.

 

[davebo]

But all other Yellow Stingers will have black interiors, unlike that red one. I've see that color combination before so don't put yourself out on my account, but of course the more photos the merrier.

Edit: oh I thought you were talking about a different dealership. You're saying that is the one with the yellow/red stinger, they just don't have it yet.

That's correct, they haven't received it yet. The Sunset Yellow car and my order of Snow White Pearl with Red Nappa is the only two that my dealer is receiving first batch so I'll take some snaps and put them up when they arrive. His information from Kia Australia has the delivery date of 16th of October although the cars have landed over a week ago.
