Kia Stinger.... Theyre passing Nissan.
Let's see....
Kia's Maxima competitor is a RWD/AWD 8 speed auto a 365hp/376lbs of torque with LSD RWD and torque vectoring AWD. Gets to 60 in Z time and has a higher top speed than Z. 167mph. We're not being outdone by Hyundai. We're being outdone by there bottom of the barrel brand. Kia. Nissan is a joke.... Public Enemy, Change your song title from 911 is a joke, to Nissan is a joke. Smh. Game Over!!! http://jalopnik.com/the-kia-stinger-...eel-1790949403 [url

Hyundai or kia are king of copy cats of car companies, this looks like a mich mosh of a Maserati ghbilia & the new alfa romeo and their own k900. Will never sell over the bmw.

WTF is Nissan doing?? Why have they dropped the ball on redesigning a new Z? They are going to start to lose loyal customers to other car companies if they don't start coming up with some new innovations.

And if you're copying Maserati? You're doing it right!!! N outsell BMW? I doubt this car is priced in BMW range. This is probably base Q60 range or top line maxima.

People can hang on to Hyundai insults all day long while getting beat at the track n making excuses.... Nissan driver friend asks....Dude.... why you lost to a Kia? Nissan driver....I sprain my wrist n it made me granny shift. NDF.... Dude that blows. ND. It also didn't help that Nissan neglected the Z to squeeze another 50 miles out of a leaf that no one buys either.... NDF.... Dude buy a Kia... and win. Nissan driver commits suicide. Nissan, you gutless bastards. You're going out like Honda and pre 2012 Toyota.

He's probably trying to make his soul commit suicide. Poor man. Thanks Carlos Ghosn. You're a great soulless businessman.

But they're not and as I narrow down my selections. The Alfa will be one of my two purchases. I'm just trying to figure out my coupe.

Other than red and 4 doors. I don't really see it at all but.... either way.... I'm pretty sure Infiniti won't be making a comparable Q60 to the Alfa. And I'm sure Kia will be an outstanding value. Let's face it. It's not just Nissan failing us. Mitsubishi.... No AWD eclipse. No Evo. Subaru... CVT WRX instead of auto or DCT option. Outdated STi Mazda. No mazdaspeed3, no v6 Mazda 6, no mazdaspeed 6, no Rx 9, no mazdaspeed miata. Nissan outdated underfeatured vehicles. Old Z, aging GTR. Toyota... so far has made underperforming sports cars for the power level. Honda. The NSX was a computer game on wheels way more than the GTR will ever be plus overpriced and nothing like the original NSX. Because of Japan's blatant pussification of cars.... Korea is gonna prove themselves in the sports arena.
