New Stinger Fan

[Leftlane]

Been driving a 2012 Buick LaCrosse touring edition for last 6 years for all the interior comforts (HUD, ventilation seats etc...).
Past cars were Nissans and Infinity.
Looking to get into something sporty in next 6 months. I was researching the new 2018 Regal GS and came across the Stinger. Now I MUST HAVE a Stinger GT2 Rwd in White or Ceramic grey. Been Stung!!

Great choice! It’s a fantastic machine! You’ll see on this forum that there are many Stinger fans out there

Those are some nice colors and ones that I would choose with a red or another color interior if KIA decides to add more.

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Well, if you're looking for a comfortable cruiser that's versatile, reliable, pretty quick and comes with an amazing warranty - you found the right car. And I'm glad you found us! I think the Stinger GT will be a great replacement for the Buick LaCrosse - and I'm confident you'll find it to be a much better car - even though the LaCrosse is an excellent sedan...

If you try to test drive the Regal sportback you may have a hard time finding one. In the market I live in Buick dealers in the Atlanta metro area are not stocking any new Buick sedans any longer, only crossovers. I called several dealers and they all said the same thing, special order only. Seems domestics are giving up on passenger cars.

Interesting comment, @mandasol. I bought five Pontiacs from the same dealer over the past several years. Several times a couple of years ago I asked to see a Regal and they did not have one and my favorite salesman said the dealership would not order one "because they can't sell them." So how in the heck can you sell a car you can't show or get? Glad now I didn't just order one sight unseen. I think the new GS is a fairly decent car, made in Germany, but it isn't even close to a Stinger from the reviews I've seen. And I have seen a lot of recent ads for them on TV.

I believe the Buick Regal is the German Opel Insignia, same as the new ZB Commodore here in OZ that was released here in Feb. they have only sold 500 in March, in time past the Aussie built commodore averaged 1500-2500 units per month.
Problem getting one, nobody wants them, even our racing series here Supercars (formerly V8 Supercars) cannot get the Holden badge for the front grille, eg: Erebus Motorsport are manufacturing their E logo on a 3D printer. So what would that say about parts availability.
Also Opel was GM, now owned by PSA Group may go a long way to as why GM/Buick don’t want or cannot get.
Once you get your Stinger you won’t be disappointed, welcome to the club.

Sad to hear, but seems right. Nobody in Orlando area has a GS.
Doesn’t matter, have to have a Stinger now!
