So i keep getting this pop up to make a thread to introduce myself. So fine, i'm doing it!

Just bought a 2019 Kia Stinger GTS RWD with only 4k miles on the odometer. Waiting for it to ship to my location... feels like its taking forever but its the holidays so i understand.

My previous car was a 2010 Genesis Coupe 2.0T Track that i had bought right when they 1st released. I loved that car and it was the 1st car i modded relatively heavily with the beyond redline stage 3 turbo kit. Sadly i was in an accident not long ago (T-boned at a light, i was not at fault) everyone was OK though but my Genny is dead :( had just crossed the 100k mark on her.

I was so happy with my Genesis that I figured id get another Korean car because the value for the money simply cannot be beat and the stinger is sexy and a better family car. I'm going to miss shifting gears though... but at least the wife can drive this one. I wanted a sun roof and the ability to at least shift gears with the shifter (don't like paddle shifters) so the GTS trim was my only option.

I had bought the genesis right when they came out so i was up to date on their forums from the get go and knew the best mods and such. Looks like i got plenty of reading to catch up on these forums while i wait for the car to arrive.

Hey BKGTS,

Welcome to the Stinger Forum and congrats on purchasing your GTS! I am sorry to hear about your Genesis Coupe, that was one of my favorite cars for a long time. You will absolutely love the power and practicality of the Stinger in comparison to your old coupe.

Feel free to reach out if you ever have any questions.

Cheers,
Daniel @ K8
 
Great intro! Sad story. But glad you're here, regardless. Hope that you enjoy the Stinger at least as much as the Genesis, and have better fortune not getting wrecked (it goes without saying).
 
Welcome to the forum and congrats on your Genesis replacement.
 
Welcome! Hope your car gets there soon!
