    Fastest Stock 2020 Stinger GT AWD in the states?

    Dodge 2015+ cars (challenger r/t scatpack) moved the timers to the front wheels to account for rear wheel spin so they are pretty close. Prior to that they were driven by the rear wheels so we had people posting 0 to 60s in like the upper 3s, low 4s but it did not account for all the spinning...

    Fastest Stock 2020 Stinger GT AWD in the states?

    Been using this for 15 years with many cars... it's very accurate. in fact, I was the first person to do a 0 - 60 run video on the internet back then using a G tech. I'll never forget it when my friend told me... hey your video is famous... first of its kind! LOL Yes you have to know how to...

    Fastest Stock 2020 Stinger GT AWD in the states?

    Okay... here's a video of my 2020 GT AWD just now on a nice smooth newly paved level part of the road... we checked the grade in various spots to make sure. Temp was 72 degrees and low humidity. The car is def. a factory freak. I called Kia about this abnormally fast car and the service...

    2020 AWD Stinger GT 0 - 60!

    My wheels are all @ 43 PSI right now after they're warm. Wonder if there was a way to launch at a higher rpm (rather then do a neutral drop LOL ... won't do that anyway).

    Stinger Down

    Yeah... you can replace the car... but you can't replace ones life! Glad to hear she's okay and only has to contend with the consequences of the forces of physics on the spine. Go for a 2021... suppose to be 380 HP? Not sure... https://www.carsdirect.com/2021/kia/stinger

    Stinger GT AWD rather shaky after 150mph run on expressway.

    Okay... so I took the car out to do a 70 - 150mph run on an open stretch in Mexico :) That went well... but when I gradually slowed down to 70mph... the steering wheel had a vibration in it that wasn't there before and the car seem to sense every little imperfection on the expressway... but the...

    2020 AWD Stinger GT 0 - 60!

    Best time ever today! Okay, did another 0 - 60 this afternoon with just me in the car. Normally I was testing with another passenger. So with 3/4 tank of some gas from Shell(not that it matters any... maybe?) just me in the car and about 90 degrees out... first run... not rushed.... 0 - 60mph...

    Metallic Clank Sound

    I had this in both my stingers... 2019 and 2020... it's coming from the console area 100% Both cars have this rattle knocking type sound coming right from that area... where the thermostat controls are. Any hints folks?

    Motor Trend: "Kia Stinger GT vs. Genesis G70 3.3T: Is Luxury Worth It?"

    1/4 tank of gas and 60 degree temps... without launch control I'm in the low 5's Best 0 - 60 using launch control was 4.37sec. .. 0 - 30 1.55 sec. I'm sure they used premium fuel... they know better :)

    Lost to a Black Challenger GT today...

    Good Data there... wow the Ghibli overall looks lower but I never drove one... and resembles the stinger look (and motor TT V6) very much. Then again there's no headroom in that thing according to a review. Stinger is in the middle although it seems lower than all of them when you look at it. I...

    I don't know if it's me... but the stingers design sits low like a Maserati Ghibli... real sleek! I test drove a Challenger GT before and it felt like a loaf of bread ? :/ 2 square for me... (not saying it didn't handle good ... just the way it looked through the windshield and the way I was...

    Kia Stinger vs Camaro SS

    I had a 2000 Z28 LS1... yeah it was fast... best time at the track STOCK was 13.43, 13.5s avg. 13.7 below avg. Automatic. 0 - 60 was around 5.1 give or take... All you had to do was change the torque converter and put on a set of slicks, and that was good for 12's easy with that car!
