2019 Kia Stinger GT - Korea's Middle Finger to Japan & Germany! 

Redline Reviews You guys have my full support!

Good to hear he’s doing well. Thanks for the update!

Man...hope he's fully recovered. You guys do good work.

My favorite RU-vid channel. You got my support

My best wishes are always with you guys! Thanks for such an outstanding channel. Take care!

This is a job I'd happily do sick every day! If Soyfan ever wants to trade places with me, I'm down! Seriously, give me a call! Lol

Crixus you know RU-vid doesn’t pay you if you don’t put ads

It’s “in depth,” not “in debt.”

Thank you for that, the show must go on! This video was recorded a couple weeks ago and I'm actually nearly 100% recovered now :) - Sofyan

what happened?

Redline Reviews Bro, I'm so happy for you!!!!!! I hate to be all mushy, but that brought a tear to my eye. This could not have happened to a better person.

Thats good to hear, man! Redline reviews is the best Channel on RU-vid!

RandomGamer He had Bell's Palsy, and that affected his face. He's all better, now.

Will Callaway what happened to him?

La Flame He had Bell's Palsy, but he is totally healed.

ELPJM09 exactly...I'm facing it for almost 4 years now

My prayers as well

A fat man sat on my face, so....Herpes simplex!!! #SeranRap

I had Bells Palsy when I was 13. Thank God it only lasted about a week and a half. I'm glad it was just temporary for him as well. I love his videos and would hate for him to stop because that's all people focus on. Ps. Love this car I'm strongly considering it.

ELPJM09 I had it before too, most of the time it happens in the cold so what my parents would do is make me when 10 layers of clothing lmaooo but yea it sucks when I use to have it

Why dont you buy it?

I had read and watched a lot of reviews on the Stinger GT, before I had the chance to get behind the wheel of one a couple of weeks ago. My expectations at that point had been very high indeed, but I was still a bit sceptical. Could this car really be as good as all the reviews made it out to be? OH hell, yes it can! And it is! 😀 I put my name down for a 2021 facelifted Stinger GT right there on the spot. The car really is that brilliant!

@@rennwolfwolfgangkriegl Yeah I’m on board with this Stinger. Love it. Wanted a new TLX but this thing with the combination of power/style/interior trumps a lot of more expensive rides.

Derek Golec wow that color is beautiful!!!!!!!

What country or state do you live? I guess that yellow color is limited. Where I'm from, I don't see yellow as an option.

I bought a Micro Blue GT2 three weeks ago and I'm loving it so far. I don't plan to change any of the badges because I am proud to be driving my KIA! I traded in a KIA Optima SXL and I was proud of that one also.

I think the blue is my favorite color. I wish the red interior was an option with the blue exterior...

They brought a few yellow ones to the US, just that only certain dealers got it. I think it's a standard color in Australia though.

Ezias genesis

Yeah we don't really know if it's reliable yet...It hasn't even been on the market a full year. Twin-turbos from KIA?...uuhhhhhh I'll wait and see how reliable those are. Genesis's lineup is looking sweet though.

You can't know that a car is reliable when it's been out for just a few months...plus it's engineered by Germans and it's not like they are known for reliability

Geoff L. It's the same drive train that's in the genesis g80 and that's reliable so I don't think they'd have any major issues but it is a first year model so we'll see

it has been in the Genesis for sometime now

In terms of reliability according to JD Powers Kia is actually better than Honda now. Look it up.

@@anonymous00117 better late than never 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for that, thought I was seeing things. Makes me curious to go see their reviews next.

I was looking for your comment to make sure it was him, LOL.

I see him too

Your my goto guy to find out the latest on new cars you do a grest job. That said i dont care what this cars does on the road 50k on a Kia sports sedan with fake hood scoops (really fake ones thats just being cheap and tacky ). My 50k would go to a better quality car without fake scoops on it. Hello Audii A5 sportback.

That tail light strip that wraps around onto the fender is horrible what were they thinking.

JUMP23MΔN Lolz my BMW and my badge is better than this in every way......except back seat leg room haha

godsmack1716 that’s exactly why you’re called a badge snob

JUMP23MΔN let us know how your KIA drives.

James Cho no I'm really not, my infotainment system is way better, interior quality is close, styling is way better on my 435i.....and you're crazy if you dint think branding is part of making a good product and kias branding is TERRIBLE!! Way more impressed with genesis currently than this ugly thing.....if my car actually sucked I'd be a badge snob

godsmack1716 Your 435i is no doubt an awesome car but the Stinger GT is also amazing, only for $10-$15k less. Its also far more practical while offering similar performance. I love BMWs but I also love value and Kia is killing it lately.

A white leather interior would have been nice on that blue stinger

Just curious. What are they leasing for. I am interested. I saw they had a lot of lease cash for the loaded model.

BG, Lease deals are pretty aggressive due to incentive cash. I recommend checking out the lease offers on Kia.com. Select the Stinger model, configure your car and then click on lease estimator. I really enjoy this car. Good luck with your research.

Alex K I know that's the perfect shade of blue for the Stinger GT

heyheyhe0011 Kia is awesome! Go South Korea!

And to think Kia started out making (licensed) copies of Mazda vehicles. We had a K303 back in the years. It was the first ever brand new car my family had ever bought. It was actually pretty darn good. Times sure have changed.

heyheyhe0011 you should be proud!!

국뽕에 취한다...

제가 한국사람 아니지만 기아 너무 잘했어요 ^^

Only for people with IQ's under 50 who know nothing about cars and would agree with a title as idiotic, shallow, ignorant and wrong as that. Germans actually developed that car, funny, right? And it's not as good as any of the European rivals, funny,right? So how is it a middle finger to anyone?

Stinger is not a Korean car. They paid Germans to lead its design and engineering, so it just shows that they have no confidence in their Korean talent.

motomusiq This Kia was built in korea by Koreans. I know the car is design by a German engineer but How the hell is it German when it came out of Korea?

iTzMark671, well, I think it's more about who designed and engineered it. A car can be made anywhere! For example Toyota Corolla is made in something like 6 countries and the new Honda Civic comes out of England. To me it doesn't make it a British car.

some bmws are built in the usa does that make them american cars?

Cole Foley Does it have a 360 degree camera?

Shane Nelson not in the US

They need to stop with these country specific offerings. Whether you're in Canada or the U.S., why the hell wouldn't 360 degree camera be offered? In Canada, 360 degree camera is offered but not in the states.

No if you go to explore more about the model under the features & specs or on the configurator on their website it will tell you that there are trims that offer the heated/ heated & cooled front seats, heated steering wheel, head-up display, & Surround View Monitor camera system

chigasaki06 Right? I found out the Candian Honda Accord gets lane watch but the US one doesn't. I'm not sure what the reasoning for any of this is.

It pretty much is in other countires. No idea why they decided to screw USA. And its not cost because you pay the same or more, than countries with all the features!

It is in Canada. Many Americans are crossing the border to buy our version of the Stinger which has more features and is less expensive :D

Anton Zuykov no he means the Atlantic's shouldn't be a special edition - the 'special' things should just be on the standard gt2. Standard model is not the same as base model.

Exactly. I think making only 500 of them is too low.

how much is it in canada?

i drove a 2015 a6 also a 2016m5 and not to say i did drive a 2018 stinger and the stinger perform better then both of the german cars

Jose Pena But resale and public opinion keep everyone from the Kia because they think it’s for poor people.

Lewis Cross The Charger is a sedan Stinger is a hatch (fast back) No comparison

These are exactly the 2 cars I'm cross shopping

And I bought the 2018 Dodge Charger 392 Daytona. Loaded. Much better financial deal. The Kia is sleeker, but the Charger, the way I got it in Destroyer gray is just way more badass.

Osoji I'll do the same exact thing

Literally my plan exactly

Good plan. You’ll get it half price used.

Ehh.. I'm at the auction almost every week it's still pretty low compared to other cars in the same class.

Randy Carlisle it's still pretty bad.

Is that factual or just your opinion?

JrVtec - 2008 Kia Optima???? news flash its 2018. Kias from those years of course still have low resale. Newer Kias is where the damn difference is folks. Come-on now!! let's not be silly

KelNg130 they are two brothers bro

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FeVaPUOI7Lg.html This is for the 3.3T. There’s a different review of the 2.0 T

IneedSchool do care to make another stupid comment ?

Lexus should just call it quits. They sent the GS E63 and M5 baiting, but customers are largely nonplussed. The IS also gets little love. Judging by sales numbers, most Lexus customers don't want a sport sedan, they want an ES.

JDubbs07 Lexus should just call it quits. Lol and who are you again ?

IneedSchool cool story

Toyota4Life Exactly. So you acknowledge it's a great car, superior to the GS. See? That wasn't so bad.

David Santiago can't go wrong man both great cars. The N will most likely be more fun but this is definitely the faster more luxurious car.

TheHvk So they have joined Lexus is what your saying. Lol

I sent Infinity corporate an email demanding that they step their game up. I told them to ditch DAS, use the Giulia as the standard for steering feel, and update their transmission or switch to a ZF sourced one. They told me that they don't accept "unsolicited advice." That's why infinity has been sucking! Acura needs to step their game up too. I hope the Stingers and the G70 when it goes on sale, do very well.

TheHvk Acura is on their way to making a comeback with a much better lineup

NileshR12 The day Acura comes back is to have a RWD in there line up.

Chigasaki06 Fuck Infiniti then. Not as good as the Germans and nowhere near as reliable as there rest of the Japanese.

I thought the same till i actually got inside a stinger and boy it felt like an italian car, loved it

Uh....Subaru STI?

Lexus has sports sedan

Mayonnaise sedans? You must not have seen the 2018 Camry.

They do, pull your head out of your ass and you will see.

WRX STi??

roscoe1972 I guess it’s for the folks up north and in Canada that get a lot of snow year to year.

It doesn’t mean shit to Folks in the Midwest (myself included) but to folks that get harsh weather but don’t want to get an SUV or don’t have the money for a “weekend warrior”, I think AWD is a terrific option.

I want one!
