• PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

Perth cruise?

Also, the only event I have taken my Stinger to, was the Kia Motors Australia Track Day / Experience Event back on the 16th July 2018, held at Sandown Raceway, the Victorian Drive Days are like at least 6 months apart, and if you miss it, well it's a long wait, I have been told recently I should sell it, i just don't know , I have not lost any passion for the car, it's just so damn frustrating that I have only been able to go to the Kia event, nothing else.
 
I too have cards to give out. The problem is there just ain’t enough Stingers in Perth and the few that are out there are not enthusiasts enough to go on Facebook forums and this forum despite how hard I have tried. I have gone to dealerships all over the Perth area and told them about the forum , even given out flyers for them to give to new customers but nothing has worked. I even chased down an owner and made him stop so I could talk to him about his car and the forum.
My hats off to Sydney owners as they have spirit and motivation to get in there. I do feel let down to be honest hence having given it my best shot I’m handing the reigns over to the other Perth owners to see if they can do better.
Maybe change after shave or better still tell them you drive a Dcb stinger lol.

It is a strange phenomenon ( do, do, a do, do) why Perth people don't embrace the Stinger.

That's some dedication man!

I did my disappearing act (not going online on the forums), as I been SUPER SUPER busy with work. I was hoping that this cruise would still be held!

Welp :(

I’ve emailed them asking if this is open to all Stinger owners or just those purchased through Midland.

Sunday
May 5, 2019, 9AM

The free inaugural Stinger Cruise Day is upon us and it's going to be BIG!

We kick off the day at 9am with a free BBQ breakfast at Midland Kia, we hope to have a WA police Stinger on display during this time. At 10am we start our cruise through the Perth Hills, having a large group of Stingers cruising through the hills will be quite the sight to behold. We will finish our cruise around 11.30 at Whiteman Park where we will visit the 'touring car museum'. At the end of our museum visit we will have a delicious free lunch together after which we finish our day at 2pm.

Not only will this be a day to enjoy your stunning Stinger, it will also be a great opportunity to meet new friends and become a part of the Midland Kia Stinger family. To top it all off, this day will be completely on us! This is our way of saying thank you for choosing Midland Kia as your Kia dealer of choice.

Just one of the many reasons why Midland Kia is the Kia dealer of the year 2018.
Please RSVP by April 18th

How’d u go @AV8R?

On the FB post someone said they called and was advised only for Midland customers. Whereas the response to my email from Rick Van Der Windt was non-Midland Kia customers are welcome and he sent me a link (requires a Google account) to register.

I sent this to @AV8R this morning he rang them to enquire about it & was told it was for Midland Kia customers only, so I guess you read my post on FB.
 
Midland kia marketing were supposed to send me an a email to explain but I got nothing. Guess it's only for those invited by email

I say gate crash the party. Or failing that buzz the dealership in your Cesna lobbing bags of flour and tomatoes. Maybe towing a banner saying "Iam worthy".
In all serious thats lame if correct.
