Bro, its a Kia, not a Pagani. Settle down.

Well, that's just a Genesis, it's not a Pagani, and why mention Pagani , Pagani is not a Ferrari or Lamborghini, think before you post, you have a history here of causing forum trouble.
Also, you said " it's a Kia " you mean it's just a cheap Kia like all the other Kia Models, i presume you own a Stinger, or else you don't belong here spreading negativity on a vehicle we spent our life savings on , and have a passion for, if Genesis in Canada can do it, why can't Kia in Canada do it also, Genesis is not a Pagani one more time.

Lol. "The M Word" is the name of my blog. The "M" Word

Merlin I just read that.....what can I say...your recital for detail knows no bounds. Lol

Picked up a Honda Civic to commute with for the time being. Also have an E46 M3 in the garage to fill the speed runs as needed. Jury is out on next car at the moment. I really would like another Stinger but if not Yellow or Orange than i am not interested.


Agreed here, i had WAY more attention in this car then i ever thought possible. And not just "car guys" either. Wife didnt believe me until we took a road trip to California and at almost every stop someone had a comment. She could not believe it. Even caught a few peeps taking pics of the car in La Jolla!

Its a shame on the paint but I am at peace with giving it back.

There's rumours about an orange 2020/1 stinger. Have heard it 2nd hand from a normal reliable source on here down under. Maybe squeeze your local Kia dealer for more detail.

WTF, where in his comment is he unsettled?

On the K8 store they have a K5 area for Optimas it has accessories check it out.

Checked it out, won't bother with mods on it as I will be trading it in this year. No point even up dating the GPS really as it costs over $200 to do so. The dealership can do it when I eventually hand it over.

Bro, what he said is absolutely true. I've had more people talk to me at gas stations, stop lights, and parking lots in 3 months than the last 16 years combined. You think people are going to be standing around a Mustang GT, Audi S4, or a 3 series BMW in a parking lot checking it out? Hell no, this has happened to me several times now when I've come out of stores.

If you actually owned a Stinger, you would know that, go troll some other car forum.

If only there was an award for the coolest guy in the Applebees parking lot...

My surrender took place on Friday.
Painless and got a check missing only my last payment.
Took less than 30 minutes, less time than it took to get to the dealer.

so many people surrendering, i'm really curious to see where these cars end up.

I was at my local dealer getting my passenger side rocker panel replaced since the morons that painted the car broke the clips on it and I saw a yellow GT1.

From what I understand it is a surrender that they got it at auction, seems another dealer gave it up.

My service advisor told me that they thought the dealer paid in the range of 24K for the car. The dealer took care of some "warranty items" and is apparently selling it back to the auction house under some deal they have.

Based on this information, and the fact that I no longer see the other 2 yellows that were floating around here (the auction car is at least 5 different shades of yellow - looks like crap) I would surmise that the surrenders are just going out to pasture.

The dealer would not sell me the car and insisted it was going back to the auction guys, but I cannot find it anywhere.

I was looking here: Kia STINGER Car For Sale, Used Cars USA, Online Auto Auction, Car Shipping from USA - Auction Export

It is depressing to see how many are totaled in such a short amount of time.
