Old to forum, new to Stinger

[jdmvette]

Hey everyone

I have been lurking on this forum ever since the Stinger came on my radar back in 2018. Proud to say as of yesterday, I am finally an owner.

I picked up a -23 GT2 AWD and am thrilled over the moon with the car so far.

Will be actively posting on this forum now

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Congratulations on your new Stinger GT! Nice upgrade from the also nice Acura TL Type-S. Maybe one day you could write up a comparison of the two vehicles. The TL has a large following for good reason. It's going to be an amazing first car for your son.

Question about your website, are these center caps a set of four when entering a quantity of 1?

I believe that is the way it is stated but the price for 4 caps seems too good to be true.




The car came with the "E" caps and I don't really like them

@Kia Stinger

Not sure why this introduction thread is being shadow banned?

@jdmvette Each set of wheel center caps comes with four pieces - one for each wheel.

When a member is new or hasn't participating enough to have been upgraded out of "new member" status, editing a topic can send it into moderation. Before forum software had the ability to do this, people would post an innocent looking topic to pass the security filters - and then just edit it adding links to malicious websites (for example).

Thanks for the info! I'm an enthusiast so there'll be no shenanigans from me

Wow, congratulations and welcome to the "wait a few years to see if it holds up before one" club.

There should be a term for people who buy a stinger AFTER it was officially cancelled, but you've been lurking since the thing hit the showroom. Talk about delayed gratification!

Hey @jdmvette,

Congratulations on your Stinger!

I love to watch people set goals and achieve them, it motivates me so much.

Let me know if there is anything I can assist you with.

We waited too, and saved some bucks and then pulled the trigger when we found the right one. It is an interesting car as
most cars that have a turbo charged engine can be. Luckily, you have a great later model example after they sorted out the
bugs with the coil packs and other little things that vexed these cars when the first came out. Congrats and happy motoring.
