I am still voting for a slightly used less than 10000 miles BMW 340 Xi or Audi RS3. Don't get in to the hype with KIA. As long as they have the badge and don't move forward with a separate luxury brand like Hyundai did with Genesis, they will never be able to sell they their cars for those prices. K900 was an example and now Stinger will be one as well. Doesn't matter how good their cars are, the depreciation will be too much.

Why would the OP want to deal with unreliable German trash?

Kia would likely be significantly more reliable and less
costly to keep on the road.

For a similar price to the Stinger GT, you could also consider the Lincoln MKZ 3.0tt AWD. Starts around $46K, accounting for the AWD and 3.0L V6 twin turbo add-ons.

It's quite the sleeper with 400hp and 400tq. There's also a tune for +50hp: https://www.livernoismotorsports.com/product/LPP631146

Not in Canada.....Kia is less $$......is significantly faster stock, has better
space utilization with the hatch.....and isnt a geezer’s car.

I also want a Stinger so bad. I will be looking for a new car in two years and then I will check the resale values on the Kia and decide. Otherwise I should be able to get a Fusion Sport. I had one for a week and it was beyond fast. I cannot imagine it with a tune...

I would go for one. I like the way they look, specially given the price (they look much more expensive than they are). And they make decent power by the looks of it: [ame]

Just a few mods and 400whp! ^

The Genesis G70 will be basically the same car but lighter by 200 lbs and slightly smaller. Supposed to run 4.5 0-60 stock, 12.8 1/4 mile , and 80 extra hp on deck with a tune, and another 40 with downpipes and intake. Supposed to be released in April.

Genesis - is that the one with the ripoff copy of Chrysler wing badges?

I want to see a few other vendors repeat what Tork did. They've been a little shady in the past and I wouldn't trust them just yet. I find it hard to believe Kia restricted the car so much, that only a CAI and muffler delete netted a 44whp gain alone...

I've had a Jetta, Passat, A6, A8, 3 A8Ls, and S8. I never had an issue with any of them. They were extremely reliable and maintenance was no different than any other car.

And they don't look like a dragon fly.
