I do like that exterior color but I'm bias towards a red interior for that as opposed to the terracotta brown. Regardless, cool of Kia to send it out in style.

Nice. They should've tuned it though, just for fun.

 

[Deviate]

Definitely like the color. Ill agree with @Devin ,tune it. Interior color, not sure about it but cool none the less. Scorpion wheels...3rd special edition with those so not super special. IMO a unique wheel for a tribute would have super cool

 

[MrE]

Agreed! I like that exterior colour very much.

But, local media says the Tribute won't be made available in Australia, so at least I won't have to enviously see one drive past me.

taking a page out of Subaru's playbook for lame special editions that are cosmetic differences only.

new paint color, leather color, caliper color. that's it. wow, lol. wheels, black accents, and carbon fiber trim has already been done on the previous two special editions.

The Stinger has been a great car for KIA and for those of us lucky to have owned one. While some units had some quality issues when the car was released, most were solid and well built. I loved road tripping in the Stinger. My last one, was rode better with the Mando suspension tuning box and then even better with the change over to BFG Comp-2 A/S Plus. I saw a version with the brown interior and wouldn't have mind having that in a newer version, that was long overdue for the US market. While production may be stopping, my love for that car will always be there. It was the most trouble free (the 2nd one) car I have owned.

KIA has proven they can make a really good GT car that can stand with other costing much more. With the EV6 GT coming to market, this continues and improves upon what the Stinger could do. Sadly, KIA isn't planning on making them in volumes like the Stinger and I suspect this has to do with how they have priced and possibly due to no EV incentive being available for it. I'm sure they don't want to have another slow selling halo car (CUV). Let's hope they are making another GT based car on the EV platform. Audi and Porsche have put out some nice products, I think KIA can make an EV Stinger GT, with some real performance chops on the next go. Can't wait to see what they do next in that space.

That colour combo is amazing.
