• 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!

New Stinger hood mockup

Yeah I like it, but it’s a whole new front end, the intakes are different. Oh and what’s with the V8? I thought Kia had shelved that idea, and those plastic bonnet vents better be functional.
 
I know it looks good tho
 
______________________________
That front bonnet looks great and perfect, how hard would it of been to include a bonnet like that , instead of the two fake vents, the front spoiler looks awesome also, i would consider a front bonnet like that one if ever available, would only be concerned about matching the paintwork, absolutely love it.
 
Sorry folks count me out:thumbdown:

If they made this car in a V8 I’d be first in line. I know this is all hypothetical but my hypothetical comments are:

I’m ok with the front end.

Lose the fake bonnet vents if you’re going with one large central intake.

What does the “S” stand for in in Stinger V8S?

Oh, and why is the fuel tank now on the right hand side?

The V8 actually has less power than your car belive it or not. Engine is from k900 500nm torque

I believe it. The Stinger’s HP and torque specs are almost identical to my previous SSV’s specs. I should have been more specific and said if they make it in a Turbo V8 I’ll be first in line.
 
Im altogether pretty happy with the V6 package. Sway bars as an improvement and a better factory exhaust with sound and id give it close to a 10.

The whole car is a mockup, just to be clear. The ramblings and photoshop work from an online car magazine:
Kia Stinger V8: Sweet Dream

Not a fan of that hood.. a lump in the middle with a scoop would be a requirement for a supercharger, which neither we or this concept has. Trying to look like a blown dodge or chevy. Now if a V8 *was* available and a supercharger could be added, well, then it would be ok for a track/strip car.
 
More non functional air ingresses? Why? Isn't the Stinger's hood and everything else just cool enough? I've never liked the fake vents because they are fake. They look really good as integral to the whole design. That scoop in the middle had better provide a dependent air intake or else it is just a pointless lump.
 
Nope .................way too "look at me " but you get a trophy for trying Commander !:thumbup:

In for the hood. Who is making it @NICK_KHAR lol. Just not in Carbon Fiber. I'm tired of everything for the body being released in carbon fiber lately. Some of us done like Carbon Fiber!
