Just got back from the dealer to see the car I ordered, and , I've changed my mind !!..... Well just on the color . The demo they have is exactly what I ordered Thunder Grey , Black Nappa . The body color is too dark IMHO so I reordered it in White .
The car is friggin beautiful !!! I was thoroughly impressed by everything EXCEPT getting into the back . I bumped my head on the body getting in ( 6' tall ) and so did my wife ( 5' 8" ) . Thats something you'll need to warn all adult rear passengers about .

Fit and finish was excellent , materials all looked and felt great , this is going to be a real contender !!

Cant wait till December !!

Great to hear! Other than the head bumping. But it sounds like you really like it. Awesome! Fit and finish excellent, huh? Materials look and feel great. Perfect!

The white really does stand out - especially at night. The only thing - and this may just be "ME" - but I'd cover those rear/side reflectors. Who knows? Maybe they'll grow on me...

Totally agree , I delete the reflectors on all my cars , white vinyl will do the trick on the sides , black on the rear bumper ................

When you do it I'm sure you'll post pictures.

Sure , now I'm going white , I'll smoke out the rear badges as well and leave the front E as is .

Exactly the same head-bumping for me, 6 ft. I think the rear seat ingress is narrow , and and not tall enough probably
to accommodate the sloping toward the rear.

Pleasure to be aboard! Kia enthusiast, admitted purveyor of the Kia brand spectrum, and a connoisieur of the Stinger.

Really think that Kia struck a good chord with this idea. GOD the Kia Certification Test for the Stinger was SOOOOOO LONNGGGGG though.
