o0n8 Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 The engine cover looks like something you would see in the late 80's/early 90's. It's so generic looking and only says "TURBO" as in 1 when there are 2. Just irks me for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Beard Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Good read, I would definitely be up for a test drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0n8 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Car & Driver review of the GT AWD 2018 Audi A5 Sportback for compairison The Audi looks better but has a smaller back seat and less power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted October 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I hate that I like the idea of this car as much as I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Why? Who doesn't like the idea of an AWD/RWD Sports Sedan with 365hp? I can see not liking the look, or the absence of a manual option, but shit...the IDEA seems spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted October 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Because I can't afford right meow. Often thinking about something I want but can't buy is why I hate it. Lulz. It's not the actual car I hate. I personally don't even think it looks bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyc12340 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 What do you guys think about new Genesis G70? Seems like they share the same powertrain, RWD or AWD option, smaller body. Hyundai brought Sangyup Lee, head designer at Bentley who also designed 5gen camaro and stingray at when he was at GM It's already in Korean Market, when they tested, it was slightly faster than Stinger. http://sm.uploads.im/t/Tcs7q.jpg http://sk.uploads.im/t/uc75l.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Beard Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I like them both. The Genisis seems more bmw esk but both look good to me. I'm with Ryan, either one would be sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otis Nice Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Prob would've posted if they did since folks post about buying DD's. That's not a dig, but ya gotta believe someone would've thrown up a post ASAP had they pulled the trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benner Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Saw a red one on 270 a week or two ago. Good looking car. Thought it was a Cadenza from a distance but didn't quite look right for a cadenza. Once I got closer I realized it was a stinger. Wouldn't mind test driving one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that I think about this car as much as I do but its really think it would be a nice DD, and I don't usually get excited about new cars. I saw one stock it was running 12.6-12.7. Not shabby at all imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the irresponsible part of me asking. I have very little debt right meow and don't need to add to it. I may revisit the car in a couple years, but I do hate the fact that I want one so bad now. I don't usually get all excited about new cars.

I've been scanning 270 on my commute hoping to see one in the flesh and so far no joy. I might just drive over to the dealer to see one.

unfunnyryan Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 I'm holding out on one for about 2 years. Not buying new, and not getting a first model year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have kids and a wife to support, so cars can wait. Falconry takes a lot of my time up anyway which I love. I'm holding out on one for about 2 years.

Geeto67 Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Go buy a 911 already... This year. Got kicked in the teeth (again) with my bonus but not as bad as last year, and the ducks are lining up. If something I got cooking in NY goes through this month, I might even do it for my birthday next month. Although my eye has been wandering to a new challenger and a used GT500. "It's just money, right?" I have kids and a wife to support, so cars can wait. Falconry takes a lot of my time up anyway which I love. So do I, so do most people. I am just trying to enable your happiness, LOL. You should at least get a test drive, I mean there is no harm in a test drive, right?

So do I, so do most people. I am just trying to enable your happiness, LOL. You should at least get a test drive, I mean there is no harm in a test drive, right? I'm not unhappy. And honestly, the unhappiness from the looming added debt would outweigh the happiness of having the car right meow. Test driving would only tempt me further to make an unwise decision. I don;t want to fight temptation, I want to flee from it. ha ha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
