Rick and I stopped and looked a Stinger, it was a GT-1 V6 RWD, MSRP 46K, with all the features and options on this car a BMW 4 series 440i GC would be in the low 60's. It was very roomy in the rear seat, but getting in and out was a PIA. We didn't drive it, but for a 14K difference, I'm not too sure if paying the difference is worth it. The fit and finish was first rate, the salesman needed more training or he got his Audi models confused, he kept saying the Stinger competed against the A8.
Stopped by the Volvo dealer, and was shocked a V90 (wagon) on the lot, according to the salesman, someone ordered it and decided to take a V60 instead. Not too sure why the interior of that V90 was stunning. 55K fully loaded. What a deal, an MB E400 wagon starts at 59K. Volvo has a hit, not too sure why the V90 wagon (not to get confused by the Cross Country) is special order only car.
but the V6 is pretty nice
From what I've read, it doesn't look like Kia will be able to convert the BMW/Audi/MB/Infiniti clientele to give the Stinger a second look, much less a first one.
But, for folks who haven't driven those brands on a regular basis (like me), would we be impressed enough with the drive / feel / interior materials enough to consider it?
Not that I'm in the market for a $30-50K vehicle like this, but just wondering ....

So, I'll guess it will sell about as well as the Cadenza.

I agree, with qualification. The Alfa would be a lease only.
I don't think Kia is famous for reliability/repair, either.

Actually this quote from a Reddit user seems to suggest that the Stinger is plodding along--not too bad:
"Kia moved 1,378 Stingers in April of 2018, for a total of 5,298 for the year. Compare that with the A5/S5/RS5, which sold a total of 2,169 in April and 8,243 for the year."

The GT has power, and it handles well, but I think we all know that Kia's do not hold value, I would wait for one to come off lease and be able to pick up a GT2 for about 23-25K.

A good bit over $400, actually, and pretty awful on a $33k car.

I was noticing yesterday my neighborhood has quite a Acura’s. Every 2nd or 3rd house has at least 1, some 2. My block has a couple TLX, a TSX, 3 (that I noticed) RDX and 4-5 MDX.
