The TT is the sorority girl special as every one was driven by a chick when I was in college and that seems to still be the case today.

Nope. There was a guy in my old neighborhood that had one. He always drove with his driving gloves on...wait, never mind, yes all girls.

All of this is assuming he actually owns a 911 GTS.

What's wrong with owning one? Where do you live where people can't afford porsches? lol. I got myself a '15 carrera S with 25k for $62k! and they go up to +80k! After that I purchased a '17 370z base model for a project. I have already spent 8k and keeps going as I keep spending parts for my next fi tt. The Z only has 563 miles on it lol. It sits inside my garage. I'm a 28 years old accountant with a CPA, if that means anything to you..

No it's just most people get the impression REAL Porsche owners wouldn't bother racing Kia's, then go on a Nissan forum and brag about it. Lol
But there's a first time for everything... I guess?

The Stinger isn't just a "Kia". That "Kia" will leave your 5.0 pony gts, c6, Z in the dust. Sad, but true. I guess you don't have any friends with porsches too? They'd race anybody who thinks they have a fast car or just for fun. Now, since I'm a Z owner too, I saw there is a Stinger thread and wanted to chime in.

A mustang is 3800lbs
A Kia is 3900lbs
You're 3200lbs.
You're 430hp. The Kia 365... 65hp and 700lb advantage
It just seems like a waste of time. But to each his own.

But thanks for at least showing some respect to the stinger instead of just being part of the negative comment bandwagon. Lol

Just observing the demographic on the quality of opinions here...
The level of conversation is lowered by "used car purchasers of premium sports cars" who want to play elitist on a brand new car consumer level. While brand new car purchasers making an Apple's to apples comparison on realistic competitors opinions based on a fair comparison.

I'm still stuck on people comparing this car in looks to copying other cars. It looks like the early OPTIMAS of 2010 but more aggressive with a functional redundancy to an Audi. I can make bias comparisons like this all day.

The GTR copied the corvette tail lights and the Mitsubishi EVO front. While stealing the blocky design of the original Cadillac CTS/xtr convertible. See... Now you can go back look at pictures of cars from 2005. Look at the GTR n go. Oh shyt unknown, you're right.

Raise the level of conversation. Geez.

After driving one a while back, first thing I would do is de badge the sh!t out of it removing anything KIA, Stinger, GT off it. Find a new steering wheel, the OEM is obnoxious. First mod - exhaust, next would be better looking wheels and tires. That's it. I'd be down for a white one.

I did the same to my Z when I first bought it. Couldn't get those Nissan center caps off my wheels though. LOL!

The stinger with a modded exhaust sounds great. The guy who gave me the test drive had one exactly as you described with muffler delete. Sounded similar to the BMW N54 when modded this way.
