Glynnie that's quite interesting to hear your colleagues choices, and nice to hear he is happy with the Stang. I think if he had bought the last Falcon XR-8 or the SSV Commodore he wouldn't have been disappointed though, because from all reports they were the best ones produced and may become collectors. I would have leaned toward either of those as opposed to European cars, even though the quality control may be better, the Aussie cars are great-bang-for-your-buck according to the leading motoring journos. As for the Stinger, I can quite understand how he feels, if it doesn't grab you straight away it's a disappointment. Even though I haven't seen one up close. I am astonished at how many people /mates/ family I have discussed the Stinger with who simply won't buy the Kia brand..To be fair, I noticed BentleyT said Qld Police will be getting them, that must stand for something in Kia's Favour ? .-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey Boomer, I see your post about pricing and not much exposure on the Stinger, which is strange that a new product with big claims hasn't been pushed harder . . There's a Qld Plate on this Stinger, Bentley T is on the ball !
