New Stinger Interior Color?

[WHITESTINGER]

I was looking in my local dealer's website, and they had a micro blue stinger gt1 listed with a beige interior. Is this a real option, because it isn't there on the official kia site. I tried to reach to them online, but the dealer was closed. Just wanted a quick response lol. If you want to see for yourself, it is at the winn kia of Dublin as the forum won't let me post a picture or link to it.

The ill-fated Stinger Atlantica was going to have a (darker) Espresso brown interior, with the deep blue metallic paint on the exterior. Hard to tell without seeing one in person, but in pictures it looked like it would have been a nice combination.

There was also a white leather interior option available with the lighter shade Atomic/Micro blue in 2018 - don't see it offered on the MY 2019 cars.

The Rafa Edition they sold down here had that colour interior, I’ve seen it in the flesh & I’m not a fan.

Reminds me of the 1983 Mazda 626 we had.

Hi I have the Micro Blue '18 GT2. The interior isn't really beige or in the tan family-- more of a darker off white. I like it especially in the summer's heat but it does get dye transfer from my jeans onto the driver's seat bolster area.I think they stopped making this combo. If I get another one down the road, I'd look for a red interior. those are super sharp. Good Luck.

The grey interior that was offered in the blue stinger has been discontinued for awhile now. It was never an option down here.

It looks amazing and makes the interior look much richer IMO. It looks very similar to my friends Audi S7 interior and wonder where they got the inspiration.


I live in SFL with 95+degree & 100% humidity most of the year so white leather was a must have option. I didn’t even want the top of the line version, but upgraded to that trim level because the Micro Blue GT2 was the only option that had the White Nappa Leather interior.

Unfortunately they discontinued that color combo after the launch edition and no longer offer it. I really hope they bring it back for the 2021+ Stingers or I don’t know what I will do.

Ummm....just....wow

I was surprised myself and he said it first when I took him for a ride I’m my GT2. He just kept saying “the White leather is beautiful and the designers must have copied the S7. This car is about 90% of my Audi and can’t believe it’s half the price”. He even said he liked my brushed aluminum speaker covers, center stack and shifter better than his.

It makes sense since we stole the top designers & engineers from Audi & BMW M division. It’s definitely European influenced and Kia mimicked their designs inside & out. I always wanted that Audi but agree with him that its the closest thing to an S7 but saved me $40-50k

Yes, there is a guy here in Houston with the Micro Blue with grey interior. Looks awesome! It was the only one of the Micro Blue Stingers with the grey interior at a recent Stinger meet. Think there were 4 in total there.

Thanks for posting the picture. For me, I think the colour would work if they'd shown some restraint - having the steering wheel, dash pad, carpet, console, etc. all in that same colour of brown is overwhelming.

If they'd done tasteful splashes of colour with the seats and door cards, like the red or limited grey/white upholstery options, I think it might look sharp.

When shopping for my Stinger, I was disappointed that only a black interior was offered with the red exterior here. Black is too common and too boring in my opinion. I believe a red/red combo was available in the US but I'm not a fan of that either. I think a tan interior would've been a great offering but light grey/white would have also been nice.

I think you misunderstood my response. I find it laughable that someone can compare a Stinger interior to a new S7.

Wow they REALLY should have given this a regular black steering wheel. That's disgusting.

Lol I agree. Too many people try way too hard to justify their purchase I guess

Yeah sorry the negative sarcasm wasn't expected, but I see how you jumped to conclusions based on incorrect information. I never said a new 2019 S7, and the picture of the interior I posted doesnt look anything like the new one... However, the brand new S7 interior looks like a spaceship, and agree it doesnt look like the Stinger, or anything else on the market for that matter.

However, the 2018 S7 and 2018 Stinger GT2 interiors do look pretty similar and have many comparable designs. Just look at the instrument panel gauges & screen, the heads up display, the navigation system, the White Nappa leather seats & door inserts, all the brushed metal accents & door handles, Aluminum speaker covers, pedals, etc., even the steering wheel looks almost exactly the same... If you cant see all the similarities you must just be hating because Kia made it so similar for so much less money.

Lol I agree. Too many people try way too hard to justify their purchase I guess

Lol, that's just a sad statement and I have no need to justify my purchase. I was simply repeating and agreeing with my friends comments when he compared his Blue & White S7 to my Blue & White Stinger GT2. I've just always wanted a S7 and am very appreciative to get praise like that from an actual S7 owner who knows what hes talking about. I'm not saying you don't or that they are the same car, but you cant deny Kia did a great job mimicking one of the best GTs in the world and the similarities speak for themselves.

I may be a little biased, but I think 80-90% of a S7 at half the cost is a very accurate statement.
