But given the fact that it’s limited to only 800 units and I can’t afford one new, fat chance I get to own this one in the future.
Stinger GTS
Carbon Fiber Accents all around
GIB
“the crux of this limited-edition GTS is an enhanced all-wheel-drive system that adds a hooligan-approved drift mode. Kia calls the system D-AWD, and it adds a new mechanical limited-slip rear differential to aid both traction and distribution of power between the left and right wheels. That can certainly help in low traction situations, but with a new Drift mode plugged into the Stinger’s selectable driving modes, 100 percent of the engine’s power can go rearward. ”

Here’s the Original 2017 Orange Stinger from SEMA-

There’s a Solar Yellow one owned by a lady that owns a Hair Salon in my town. I love it.

That is pretty much a non issue. Get a stinger in pretty much any color and t hen wrap it in the orange of your choosing. I am considering wrapping my mustang at some point though I haven't finalized a color yet.

Yellow looks good but the blue is my favorite, now O range . Plus there is a recall/buyback on the yellow models.

I mean, he’s not wrong. You just gotta factor that into the cost.
That being said, I love orange as a car color, think it’s underrated as hell, but my wife doesn’t prefer it. And she bought off on a Z06 so she has taste.

Thousands of dollars is always an issue for me!

There’s a yellow in my town, too. The blue look great.
Hopefully the orange is more like that last picture, and not as flat as the new promo pictures.

Yeah but if you aren’t picky on a color you might be able to get a deal on a car that is cheaper than the rest. You get the same car and get to choose the exact color that you want. When you decide to flip the car the paint should also be immaculate underneath as you have basically kept it protected the entire time. The only catch is that you need to know a shop that does clean work.

Honestly, the smart move is probably to find a used one that’s immaculate, and get the wrap. Benefit from depreciation, and have a perfect car in a “normal” color when you go to sell it.

Yes, but only available in one very specific configuration with very specific options.
JUST FUCKING MAKE IT AN EXTRA-COST ORDERABLE COLOR ON THE GT ALREADY, KIA. JUST. DO. IT.

But...but...but...resale!
By which I mean, the only people who will have the stones to buy this color are the ones who intend to keep their cars, or at least don’t care about what they can get for them.
Everyone else will buy silver. *sigh*

Plus there’s a very good chance dealers are going to mark them up because they know whet they have.
Based on a cursory glance at my Saved search on Autot ra der- Most Stinger GTs for sale are R ed , Black followed by Blue and White . Dark Gray/Light Flat Gray/yellow are rare.

Yeah, you know, as I typed that I realized that I haven’t seen any non-colored Stingers lately. That makes me happy that at least one car is bucking the trend. Way to go Kia!

All I can say is that next year looks like it might be a good year for you.

I saw a yellow one for the first time the other day (I’ve only seen blue and gray so far) and got really excited

I saw a yellow one on the road. It’s really striking.

Same with the trim. I think the more upper trims they make, the better.

I really wish the Atlantica ever got made. That said, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna get a stinger premium in the next year or two, and I'll probably wrap it green or something close to the atlantica.
