She's a beauty Richard, she's ready to go to the ball. Hows the misses coping?

Richard,

I say if the red pin stripes are good enough for these guys they are more than good enough for the Stinger!



I"m keen to do it as well now that I can see how cool it looks on your bus but maybe with the red nappa colour or even the darker tail light red rather than the brighter brembo red ??? Splitting hairs really, I'm sure they would all look great. I take it that wasn't a very costly exercise?

Also are you making more changes to your badges on the back?

 

[richard]

Yes removing the Kia badge on the back and placing the large stinger badge and that’s it for the badge stuff. All the rest is the factory stuff ie The bimodal exhaust, tow pack mats and the clear panel protection stuff.

Ladies and Gents, picked up my red GT today! I still can't believe how good they are. I mean I would have had to get an Audi S3 sort of thing to have something of the same sort of power and bells and whistles and that would have cost a lot more! Furthermore, the GT has character, its fun to drive, more fun then the Golf R I was also looking at.

Will take it for a proper run on the weekend!

Yes Ozstung that was me piping up and bit confused with the answer. Will give there advice a try and see what happens. The stinger sure put some power out on their dyno.

Sure did, quite impressive. And yes there answer lead me to think maybe they are uninformed. Should get John Cadogan to give them a call or better still Dyno the Stinger with the two fuels to settle it once and for all. Also Chilgoon well done on starting on the journey, what state are you from?

 

[Chillgoon]

From NSW, Newcastle in fact.. Will hopefully post some photos on the weekend. Trying to get android auto sorted at the moment....

Was after honest feedback.

@richard, it actually looks pretty good there. Can you take a picture from a little further back? From where I'm seeing it - it appears as if it belongs there...

Looks great ! well done , I think you should try deleting the red rear deflectors with some black vinyl or plasti dip , they take away from the detail you added ..... again great look !

Yes, the smaller Stinger badge that you added to the interior. I thought it looked pretty good but I'd like to see it from a little further away, if you don't mind...

Morning Guys,

How good. I just Rung Southland Kia to see if the have ordered my Black with Red Leather.
They have got 2 Cars that have fallen over.
Micro Blue and Deep Chroma Blue as well (Black Leather). Deliverable before Christmas. He said he might have a Black with Black Leather too.
But wasn't to Sure.

Give them a Buzz to get one now. The Micro Blue is on the floor Ready to go.

You guys are lucky. It seems we're not getting Deep Chroma Blue here in the U.S. - and a lot of people want it...
