Oh sorry, missed your reply.You can buy the LSD (Limited Slip Differential) in for the Stinger and get it installed at a shop. It will cost you no more than 1 thousand bucks.

Thanks. Video could be referring to all RWD Stingers, but the company makes the diffs for AWD cars from other companies and we know the G70 AWD already has the LSD (Limited Slip Differential), so I think it's just a matter of time, or, Kia marketing will make the wrong choice and not offer it on AWD Stingers. I would just like to know one way or the other, now.
I totally understand ( NOW ) . Back in our younger days we would have waited a few years after a new model came out those days over . ( Motto to live bye ) Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, latte in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming " WOO HOO, what a ride " .
I am only impatient about things that I shouldn't have to bother about in the first place. There should be a top of the line AWD Stinger with LSD (Limited Slip Differential) and bi-modal exhaust...and the covered cup holders. I would be happy to pay the extra over the Canadian GT Limited that has everything except those three. I am not given the option to do so, which is where the annoyance and aggravation comes from.
I can only imagine how pissed I would be if I was in the US with even worse configuration options.
So is the torque vectoring of the AWD with torque shift from front to back not enough to compensate for lack of LSD (Limited Slip Differential)?
Where does it state the Canadian AWD cars have limited slip with the AWD? I don't see any published specs from Genesis for the Canadian G70 as yet.

Wow, what's with the attitude? I'd hate to be at your table when they leave the toy out of your happy meal ...?!?!?!?!?!
Literally, type " Genesis G70 Canada" into Google and follow the glaringly obvious link to Pre-Order. The specs are highlighted near the top of the very first page that comes up. It's also documented elsewhere.

If I'd seen the 'glaringly obvious' mechanical specs on the pre-order link I got from Genesis (or after searching 'elsewhere'), then I obviously wouldn't have asked what I thought to be a pretty innocuous and straightforward question.
Thanks for the info - I guess ...
I was at a dealer a couple weeks ago, and he swears you can only get the LSD (Limited Slip Differential) on the GT2. On Kia's "Build Your Own", I can't find a way to add it either. I really only want the GT, with the LSD (Limited Slip Differential) anyway. So you're saying that it IS an option on the base GT?
no it didn't. he was just asking you a question. you need to stop taking everything people post as being somehow against you.your original message implied that I was spouting BS because you had already checked or confirmed that I was wrong

it didn't seem he was being nasty. life is a lot easier when you don't assume people are calling you out.First off, I didn't interpret his question as one to me--it was in the thread to anyone who could answer. I answered because I thought it odd that someone who was clearly interested in the differences between the G70 and the Stinger (sister vehicles) would take the time to question my factual comment versus talking the same or less time to look it up themselves, since the info is readily available at the official and expected source. It isn't personal at all for me.
