[Schroedes]

Sounds like they borrowed time on Zillow's servers to run some purchasing calculations.

Lol.. right

Just for fun I checked with carvana and vroom again. Carvana offered $29k for a 21 GT awd with 7000 miles, but the Vroom offer was the best yet…$41,333!

Vroom is nuts. I have my stinger scheduled to be picked up the 15h. 21GT, 15,000 miles

Seriously. I love the car....otherwise I would gladly take that offer considering I paid 3000 less than that 15 months ago.

Lmao my 61000 miles nets me a 60 percent loss

Just called ALGO to possibly sell my car and was informed that Kia does not allow 3rd party purchasing of their leases. So if your car is a lease, you’ll need to buy out the lease before you can sell it to any of these companies. Annoying.

I would say that the 150.00 plus fill ups on my Tundra has something to do with it.

 

[DoctorStiches]

Lol my vroom is 20k because 66k miles

Totaly arbitrary prices as the cars reliability long long term has yet to be seen.

Took long enough but ended up with an S5. Great car all around and the quality is superior to the Stinger. Performance is very similar and I'll be getting a JB4 as well. I'll compare it stock vs stock and with the tune. Looks are similar as well, I'm not sure which one looks better lol

Nice, the S5 is definitely a step up from the Stinger, but I still think visually the Stinger is a better looking more exotic design on the outside.

I can't argue that, both are sleek. I think the only other two fastback vehicles that look better imo are the A/S/RS7 and the Panamera.

I think the only view don't prefer on the Stinger is from the front left or right. All other angles are perfect.

Considered the S5, but really wanted the rear-drive architecture that the Stinger has instead of the front-drive architecture of the Audi.

Also, why a JB4? There are far better tuning options for VAG cars that don't involve any hardware changes. Something like APR for example.

That was one of the reasons I wanted the Stinger was for the RWD platform. AWD is just more convenient for me. The S5 is actually RWD biased, it's manners are similar to those of the Stinger.

A JB4 is a piggyback tune. The APR is an ECU tune which is traceable by Audi. I can remove the JB4 when going in for service. I don't need another 150 hp and worry about blowing it up. A JB4 can get me into the 11s with 20% ethanol, that's good enough for me as a somewhat DD.

Any hatchback thump, or do Audi engineers actually know how to engineer around that?

Drove about 450 miles back home and it was very sturdy. Car is solid and eats up the miles. My '20 Stinger didn't have the rattle, I wonder if it was certain model years or trim levels.

Stinger looks better but grats on your purchase!

We're all biased here, I used to think that. I gotta be a fanboy of what I own now lol

To the untrained eye, the stinger and that audi look the same, at least from a distance. Real answer will be in the pudding in a few years to see how each holds up.
