Dont be silly. I could care less what people think I have. I purchase what makes me happy or is rational for my use. When my wife and I parked in a bus parking lot and commuted to NYC, I used a 95 Subaru Outback, 03 RAV4, or a 07 CRV. By the way, I don’t rent. I purchase. I own everything I have including my home.
When I no longer had to subject the car to being dinged, etc, then I bought the wife a 2012 X3 (trading in the CRV which retained its value the best of any car I have owned. By far!) and then a 13 E350 Cab and now a 18 E400 Coupe. For years , my one “nice car was a Lexus. A 92 ES, 98 GS, or 06 SC 430 because they were super reliable. Tired are having very good cars but were a bit boring to drive, I went to BMW, MB, or Audi for the fun factor hoping for reliability as well. The E Class and A6 have been quite reliable overall for their respective manufacturers. Have had good luck with all the German cars I’ve owned as far as reliability. Nothing major. Regarding your comment about the SClass in the shop. Remember chief, even that car is more reliable than yourvFiat which you confirmed way back is on the bottom of CR reliability list.
I wish you all the luck as do I the owner of the Stinger. No offense, but there are some that don’t like it. As long as you purchase an auto that makes you happy is all that counts. Nothing personal. I see many a car down here that I love but were hideous in color. To each his own.
As for me, I drive a 16 A6.

Re: Yes, I bought a KIA
Dudley, your point has been dually noted, just trolling at this point. You don't like the Stinger, drove Japanese prior and now MB/ Audi, ok....

Funny, it looks more like an Audi A5 Sportback which is a direct competitor to it. Given the design team they have, that's not a surprise. My only gripes are the center of the steering wheel and when you actually are in the car, you can see they use lessor quality plastics on the lower portion of the interior but nicer finishes up top. Not a bad way to incorporate cost savings though. IMO Kia needs to update the font they use on the dash too.

Re: Yes, I bought a KIA
If that car had an other pedal and a different gear selector, it would be perfect
