Hey Derek, that other yellow one has the Limited badge, wonder why the one at the auto show didn't have it, maybe it was a prototype?

I thought all Stingers were supposed to have the “E” for Excellence badges?

Kia's sister company Hyundai is about to launch the i30N. It was designed by the ex-head chief of the M division at BMW. I wonder if this is simply a rebadged Stinger of it the car is gonna be completelly new design. So far the Stinger is doing amazing and I don't think Hyundai has an equivalent car in their lineup. Anybody know?

i30N is a hot hatch, the Stinger shares its platform with the Genesis G70. The i30N won’t be available in the US. We are getting the Veloster N, 270hp 2.0T. Anything and everything performance wise @ Hyundai/Kia will be done under Albert Biermann.

The modell of Stinger as in size I would think is Hyundai i40. I30 is a hatchback and i30 SW is the station wagon. I have the i30 SW but the Kia cee'd SA which share the same chassi and most parts of the car. The body and interior aside.

Well considering the masterpieces that came out in the M series BMWs, we should be seeing some pretty amazing cars from KIA and Hyundai in the next few years. Very nice!

Our i30 is the Elantra GT sport, a very sharp looking car that comes with a 201 hp turbo 1.6L but lacks an LSD, maybe that can find its way in there.

This would be on my short list down the road, hopefully....waaaaaaaay down the road!
