Anyone driven the Kia Stinger?

Sure, but the demographic looking at this kind of car which is a sedan wouldn’t even consider a camaro...

I can't believe someone is actually making this comparison. Might as well cross-shop both to a Hayabusa while we're at it. Throw in a pair of Nike's too just for good measure.

Big heavy 4 door car. Yep, cross shop Camaro, amg-wagen, and also a Honda ruckus.

Dont forget to compare a bus pass too.

My bad it’s obviously the best car ever.

You guys should buy one, any takers?

inb4: camaro and stinger serve the same purpose. if I don't need rear doors to fit my dogs in my camaro, then you don't need rear doors for your kids obviously.

Dogs? I was thinking golf clubs.

In reality though, the Dodge Charger RT is the direct competitor in size, doors, price, and performance.

Maybe the GT AWD? Anyway, this seems like a fair comparison. Anyone driven both? Or even considered both? The charger sells well.

A4, 3 series, C Class, S60, ATS.

It's bigger than these but priced like base versions of them. It's roughly the size of the A5/A6, I think at $45k it really is a bargain if you can get over the badge. A loaded Camry is ~$41k these days. My guess is Kia will move the price up especially on the GT limited model that's actually priced lower in Canada compared to USA, even before conversion.

Make a 400+ hp version so I can pass on the highway and I would definitely consider it.

I’ve liked this car since the concept came out.

One needs 400+ horsepower to pass on the highway?

[heavyD]

I think it represents solid value consider it's size and performance. I would be a little worried about the reliability considering the major issues Hyundai has had with the Theta II engines. They make the EJ257 look stout and reliable in comparison. Probably an okay car to lease short term but not a car I would want to be tied to long term. Will be a good bargain used in a few years I would imagine as depreciation will likely be steep.

It's still a Kia....it'll depreciate like crazy. Wait a year and you'll be able to pick one up for half of retail. Heck, I think there's already cash on the hood of a new one.

A buddy of mine picked one up and I have driven it. Feels really good to be honest, I also teased him relentlessly about it being a 50k Kia. He has his A4 avant(2013) parked in his driveway covered with snow since he bought it. He wanted a big car with lots of space decent tech and some power. I believe he’s happy and I thought the car was much better in person then on paper.

Overall I think bmw and Audi currently charge crack money for what their cars are.

I agree with this sentiment

I sat in the LC500 this weekend and even though it's more of a touring car, I'd personally find it tough to shell out another 50k for a base RS7.

Some people think Lexus is pretty bland but that car was the tits.

Did well for itself for 10K less

Not saying it's the best car ever, just saying you need to compare lemons to lemons. I'll probably take a look at buying one in 3 years, when they are worth about $20g.

44K with AWD or RWD? What's a fully loaded one with tech actually selling for.

I'm not a fan of the looks of this thing and am excited for the Hyundai G70 with the same drivetrain.

Thanks Kavy, that'd good feedback.
