我卖MY18 Gt-line 9个月前,取而代之的是宝马M240i。我真的错过那辆车和感觉后悔当我看到一个在公路上现在。从来没有写过汽车评论但是我的老鸡尾酒值得。我签了合同购买的鸡尾酒,我去福特野马经销商与我的心。坐在里面,便宜的小屋厌恶我。我有一个10岁的高尔夫球那是更好的。无论如何,我记得阅读关于鸡尾酒的炒作,想知道他们有展厅,幸运的是,鸡尾酒已经出去一两个星期。坐在里面,这是一个比野马昼夜差异。然后决定我想买它。这辆车看起来疯狂的好。 First impression was that it looked like a Maserati from the back and a stormtrooper from the front. And almost 4 years later, still looks gorgeous. Stands out on the road. As for the interior, like I said, soon as I sat inside, I knew it was the one. A genuine German feeling, well built interior. Seats are nice, steering wheel is cool with it’s perforations and flat-bottom shape, the brushed aluminium trim around the cabin and use of soft leatherette/plastic and alcantara roof liner… Just an overall nice place to be. Heated and cooled seats were amazing and the speaker system in the GT-Line was crisp and clear. Friends commented that it was like a spaceship inside especially at night (even though there’s no ambient lighting). Well built; inside and out. Biggest regret was going for the 2.0t instead of the 3.3t. Really felt that straight-line performance was lacking. Also, the sound fools you into thinking you’re driving a beast but in reality it sounds like any normal 4 cylinder car and you’ll get burned at the lights by more cars than you’d like. Nevertheless, it is ‘adequate’ in most circumstances but if you’re looking for that RWD thrill, a Toyota 86 will probably give you more pleasure than the GT-Line. This is more of a cruiser but you’ll get away with pushing the limits on a nice windy road. The ride is good. On the highway it feels planted (unlike my M240i which tends to sway in high winds at 130+kph). The adjustable dampers are a nice novelty but not that impressive once you get used to it. You can still tell the difference though. Around town, its a dream to drive. A bit big but smooth. Got a few comments that I was driving fast but it felt smooth and slow (which is a good thing from a comfort/insulation perspective). Wouldn’t bother putting an exhaust and big flashy rims on it - use it for cruising and you’ll be more than happy. One strong selling point for this car is the value you get for what you pay. 7 year warranty and a car that feels German? Yes please! Having said that, the fuel economy is terrible! My M240i does 0-100 in 4.5, has a 50% bigger engine, and still has noticeably better range. I was doing around 10-12l/km in the Stinger which is quite poor. The car is heavy so that’s probably why it drinks so much… As for technology, you can’t complain. Apple CarPlay and Andrioid Auto (albeit wired) is a must these days. Wireless charging, head up display and all that good stuff. Really miss having that 360 parking camera and rear cross traffic alert. Gears are smooth and flappy paddles aren’t bad although it is annoying how they go back to ‘D’ automatically and sooner than you’d like. The car was reliable throughout ownership and interior held up surprisingly well over the 55,000 Ks I owned it for. The boot is surprisingly large probably thanks to that hatchback. Rear seats are cramped though; they look nice and if the driver and front passenger don’t have their seats all the way back, you’ll be alright but if you’re a 6 foot man like me then expect complaints from the back. Also, the middle seat is silly; I felt sorry for whoever sat back there. In terms of what I think would make it better - a 3 litre Diesel engine will give the best of both worlds (Torque and fuel economy), a fully digital dash would be nice, wireless CarPlay would take the connectivity to the next level. In conclusion, the Stinger is a good car. Don’t expect it to be as fast and thrilling as it looks but if what you want is a nice-to-be-in car that is smooth on the roads with a lot of toys and you don’t mind the fact that you’re driving a Kia, then this is the car for you. I genuinely miss it for everything except the performance. My BMW has everything the Stinger didn’t; adrenaline excreting performance, perfect weight balance, and a prestige badge but honestly, I will be seriously thinking about getting a 3.3 Stinger for my next car. Props to Kia for making a car I formed an attachment to!
