Fair enough. I just hope my polarised sunglasses can see the HUD

PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

HUD’s are reflected light and reflections are exactly what polarized glasses are trying to prevent.
I can still see it but it’s about 50% dimmer compared to no glasses.
Yeah I wear my sunglasses everywhere, especially in the car. I’ve read somewhere that if you just put the brightness of the HUD up to max then I should be right.
How dim would you say it is with your sunnies? Do you have to like focus to read it or you can still do a quick glance being bright enough?

I turned the HUD brightness all the way up. It’s usable when white, but when you exceed the speed limit even by 1km, it turns red which makes it harder to see. Not sure if I can change that in the settings. Your best bet is to try it out when you get a chance

Looks beautiful! Similar colour combination to my Silky Silver/Red leather.

I'll have a play with it when it turns up next month. The red speed might annoy me as I tend to sit at about 103-104 on the highway.
Thanks for the info.

Is this Ceramic Grey or Ceramic Silver? from what I can figure out, CG was before MY21, CS is an MY21 option. And it follows if this is the case, are they the same colour or different in some way?

I believe Ceramic Silver and Ceramic Grey are the same colour.
In Australia it is called Ceramic Grey, in USA it is called Ceramic Silver, in Canada it is called Ghost Grey....just to confuse everyone
See attached Australian brochure for available colours

Just as I was getting home last night in a 50 zone, I noticed it went Orange between 51-55 and then Red 56+. So it could be 5 kms over turn red or 10% over. Not sure till I am in a faster speed zone. It's a very subtle change and not the easiest to spot as I am red/green colour deficient.

LOL - their marketing department have their work cutout for them - it is crazy how much naming conventions and specs differ depending on the region.

Just placed a pre order today for MY21 in snow white pearl. Expected delivery in late Jan!
Congrats. GT?

Thanks! Yes! GT, from NSW. Dealer was hoping late Jan to Mid Feb. Probably part of the huge shipment coming in
Awesome, I'm still waiting for mine which should come mid-feb.
I'm tracking one of the cargo ships at the moment which is on it's way back to Korea to pick up more cars after just doing the Aussie delivery run. I believe it'll come back down to Australia once it picks up it's load. Both of our cars will be on the same ship if this is the ship that comes back down to Australia again
As you can see, NSW is the second port they stop at in Australia, so at least yours doesn't get dropped off in Brisbane and then trucked up north. More waiting for me

Oh wow, great info! My dealer said it takes time to disinfect the vehicles before delivery to make it COVID safe anyway. We might be getting our cars in similar times! Fingers crossedAwesome, I'm still waiting for mine which should come mid-feb.

Seems like the Stinger is a hot item right now, and you’ll have to pre-purchase to gurantee your spot

Hyundai Glovis is a logistics company which is part of the Hyundai Kia Automotive Group. Their ships are under the name "Glovis"
You then have to search through 55 Glovis ships that are being used around the world to rule out any ships that aren't a vehicles carrier. This brings it down to 13 vehicle carriers under the name Glovis.
Once they've been identified, you look at the ports they've been to and their next destinations etc. The Glovis Condor has been to Ulsan (it's next destination after being to Australia) before, and when you zoom onto Ulsan you can see a holding yard for cars. If the Condor leaves Ulsan and follows roughly the same route/goes to the same ports again, then it's most likely coming back down to Australia with our cars on it. The Glovis Condor is the only one that has done the Australian run recently and sails under the flag of Korea - where our cars come from.
