found another one of these ugly things driving to work today.

the one thing that really makes me hate it even more is the fact they couldnt even be a little creative with their styling. the whole car is a rip off of other cars and smashed together.

the rear end is a complete copy of the maserati gran turismo rear end. like cmon now at least try to style the car yourself.

Do you know how many people back in 1970 were whining about the 240z being a ripoff of the Jaguar E type, Ferrari Daytona and other similarly styled cars.

Do you know how many people were whining about the rx7 being a Porsche 924 ripoff. Despite all the complaining purists. These cars went on to be their own heritage cars that finally came into their own.

The camaro was a copy of the mustang. Today the camaro is a stronger drivers car than the mustang.

The Stinger looks like the original optima, but muscular and more dramatic that has a couple styling cues from Maserati and Lexus. Which is fair game cuz Toyota been robbing other people's styles as well. N they are an established company. Jus sayin.

Also, if people love this car and hate this car. Kia did a great job. When you think of a fusion. Do you even have an emotion?

Crossover anyone?

One is CPO so there a $1,200 discrepency on that.
Mileage, 9,000 miles difference on 2016 is inevitably 1,000, so since the region sells the same and both these cars are same specd for their brand. They are valued about the same.

I can go digging in the internet on lower trim models that would be easier. But Mississippi is 400 miles from here not over 500. N it's part of our networking region.

Here's the low end models same area if it makes u happy. I chose loaded cuz they are a truer estimate of depreciation. There's more wiggle room on base vehicles.

https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/l-Used...ting=210913854


As you can see the k ia is selling slowly but the Altima is new on the lot. That's the $1000 discrepency. On average if you look. Loaded Kia optima's selling about $2grand higher than Altima n base cars about the same.


Brand perception is part of the same formula why people are classiest and racist. They have to put a shallow mark on a person or product or whatever. People won't test drive a car. They just say, it's a Kia, it's gotta suck. N stick by their guns with no proof except 15 year old statistics n he said, she said stories.

People are online not experiencing life but giving an opinion on everything they DON'T DO...

INFUCKINCREDIBLE
Ok there boss. At the end of they day your comparison sucked. Rental Altima vs CPO Optima. Maybe down South it doesn't matter but up here 500miles makes a big difference in COL and prices. Anyone with half a brain realizes this isn't equal, but hey I'm just elitist and racist I guess. Just own it and stop with these idiotic posts.

I'm not stringing people that don't agree. But a lot of people give their opinion with unfounded fact. Aka bullshyt. I don't challenge no one's opinion. I get on the parts where they make false claims or use outdated info as current.

If someone came in here on a Z thread talking unfounded **** bout the Z if be the same fvckin way. Remember Jungle Z. A couple of u sound like Jungle Z's for the Kia Stinger.

Maybe now y'all understand why I counter the unfounded ****. U free to not like what u don't like.

"Facts". Got it.

Don't challenge anyone's opinion? This whole thread is you challenging people with your "facts".....as is every other thread on this page. Really I don't care about Kia or the Stinger or your your seemingly strong affinity for it but I know you HAVE to have the last word so Ill await your next crude and childish response. U Iz sOOo kOOlZ BrAh.
