Honestly this is one of your realest videos. Appreciate you and your channel. You were definitely one of the reasons I got my Stinger! My daughter ready to take this car from me! Do you bro! I'll support this channel 💯.
Really appreciate the comment bro! There are days where it doesn’t make sense to invest so much time in the videos, but then there’s a bunch of you out there. If I can help people in some way, whether that’s an escape to be entertained, to help them install something, or instill the confidence to have them DIY and experience the feeling of accomplishing something they were scared to do, it’s all worth it in the end!
@@twn2rbo Fellow Stinger owner still. Just wondering if there is some secret way or method of conjuring up side cash for doing mods? Am I not part of some club of some sort that I could be generating revenue with? haha I probably just don’t side-hustle enough I guess 🤷♂️ so many people seem to have funds to pull off these mods on their vehicles, and I make pretty decent money, but have nowhere near enough money to continue doing mods. I was just curious if there was some tip I’m missing out on. LOL One more question… Did Carmax consider your Stinger to be worth far more in value because of the mods?
Came for the stinger, stayed for your editing/production style! Without a doubt the best stinger content on youtube! Don't worry about the plastic fans and focus on yourself and doing what you love!
Thanks! Editing is a gradual process that gets better over time. I think once I use an actual Apple computer with M2 Pro chip and DaVinci Resolve, the edits will be how I see them in my head. But what’s it all worth without and audience with people like you to support it, thanks 🙏
2 years ago I finally felt grown enough to afford and want a sports car. My dad has a M4 Cs and that iv fell in love from the start but my mom out of everyone found a stinger on car gurus that caught my eye. I knew about stingers a little bit but i was unaware of the 3.3tt trim at the time. went to youtube typed in kia stinger and found your channel. You single handedly sold me on the stinger from your very first videos and I haven't looked back since. I now own a 2019 Highchroma red GT AWD. Thank you for everything you've done for the stinger community!! P.S. Come back to us in due time! I know deep down you want a daily stinger in the future!
What an awesome comment bro! M4 CS is a beast for sure. I’m glad you researched the car and gave it a shot, most people can’t get past the brand, which is superficial. It’s one of the best values out there, plus as I’m sure you know now, every gas station and drive through people ask what it is and compliment it all the time, enjoy!
The B8.5 S4/S5 is a fantastic platform, one of the best IMO. Just don't lag on maintenance. I do oil changed every 5K miles and it's easy to do w/o lifting or getting under the car (use an oil extractor + filter is on top of the motor). I think you should get a stock B8.5 S4/S5 (2015 or 2016 is my suggestion) and mod it to your liking. Personally, I'm no longer into "over-the-top" modding, been there, done that and they're money pits no matter the platform (I used to be 100% all in on "reliable" JDM cars) so now I only do minimal mods because after decades of modding cars, I've learned that starting with a better platform and fine tuning it via minimal mods is smarter than trying to turn a potato into a F1 car...unless you just have money to burn I suppose. :)
been watching your channel for the last 4ish months. became a fan of your content and you as a person. cool to see you honest about your situation. looking forward to your content and any type of production you do for others. keep the hustle up!
Paul, brotha thanks man! I’ve got some very nice emails over the years and I’ve heard people say things like my channel helped them get through a tough time and ended up buying a stinger to mod it. Fast cars, those messages and people like you are why I still post! Thabje
Do what's best for you bro. Thanks for the great content, and thanks for the video about the 21 Stinger GT. I saw it last year and finally got my Stinger today after weighing all the pros and cons and watching the inventory of used Stingers. I got a great deal on a sweet car.
I just brought one and he definitely modified it, I just don't know what he did. I know the exhaust and the cold air intakes. Other than I am not sure wish I had some help, or maybe I should call the dealership? I love it so far, definitely faster then anything I have driven before.
Hey dude, hope all is going well. It is sad to have to part with something that you are so fond with but it was the right move, I say this as a complete stranger that has been on a similar situation (I still miss my Focus RS, but it was necessary). Also, thanks for your honesty and for sharing your story. You didn't have to but that shows your character and that you're willing to be as transparent as you can with your audience. Glad that you have your priorities in check, and I wish you the best of lucks on any ventures. As long as there is a vehicle in this channel I'll watch. You are called TWN2RBO so keep presenting us turbo charge machines that I am sure other gear heads will agree with you content. As I have pointed out on some other video, your editing/presentation/guest/humor makes me feel part of the conversation, the community. It goes in line with the type of content that I consume where people are genuine and enjoy the moments in life, instead of reacting frantically and exaggerating because the have a Camara in front and that is what the UA-cam algorithm wants. So good for you for keeping it real. Every issue has a solution, except death. So keep standing up every day with your purpose intact. Be the best version of yourself every day and the best of luck in your next phase.
One of the OG stinger channels, I can't tell you how many of your vids I used to help build my stinger, love the content and editing. You will succeed no matter what car you drive man, your content, personality and work ethic don't come from a car 🔥
Check you logs, if you are not tuned that is why. That happened to me in beginning of my channel and I almost sold it . I couldn’t believe how easy it went limp from just intake and exhaust!
@@twn2rbo I’m running JB4 on map 2. Intercooler, intakes, downpipe, exhaust… This is the second time I’ve dealt with the CEL coming on and misfiring. From what I understand it’s due to the turbos spooling up too quick or others have said their coils go bad due to the tune. I’m more old school, so might go back to an American V8 with a blower and other mods with a tried and true dyno tune.
@@BoostedS650 yes, that’s why I never did primary downpipes or secondary, I have also had a TON of emails from this similar issue after a FMIC was installed. Some could have been installed improperly though?? I am not sure. With your mods, I would almost consider a flash tune.
You've created some very valuable content for the stinger community. Your videos are always super interesting, and your production methods are first class. I'm really felt for you in your situation. Sorry man... I'll be watching them all again when it time for my mods. ❤😢🙏👌
You should be proud of what you have achieved with the channel, it is excellent, however be even more proud of stepping up and being real on camera. The importance for men to have real positive conversations about the struggles and expectations upon them can’t be overstated. You set a fine example. But yes I was sad to see the stinger go..careful going down the merc route if no warranty is in place. That can turn devastatingly expensive. You should see if other car UA-camrs want some remote edited support, Sarah etc. Well done again mate. Huge respect from down under.
Definitely want to give you a shout out, in no way do you owe us this much explanation but props for putting your heart on your sleeve a little revealing your current situation. I can’t say much other than I’m glad you were still able to make good out of a bad situation. Old car is gone so what, I can’t imagine any criticism after this vid‼️😤
Appreciate it bro! Yeah I love the Stinger and always will, I just seen a lot of comments where people had no idea and after all the vids, I just wanted to let them know it wasn’t that I didn’t dislike that car at all, just didn’t make sense. The show must go on!
Fam, you wanna know what's wild? I've had my S4 (B8.5) for 8 of its 10 years, and I've been seriously looking at swapping my TDI Sportwagen for a Stinger as a daily. That's how I found your channel. LOL
I have a question for you. What company do you know that I could just take my car to which is a 2023 stinger and drop it off and let them do all the performance work to it to get anywhere between 600 800 hp an approximate cost
I do like the Genesis, I seen a matte silver launch edition in Chicago when I was at Papa Falls house. Same engine too, that or a brand new GTS with no miles preserved, one where nobody like me owned it first
@@twn2rbo i currently own a 2022 genesis g70 and I been looking at your engine mods cuz they are legit the exact same, I love this car tho the styling and the interior with the same power
@@davidsaylor7807 😂 I would have to agree. Some cool people in CA I’ve met, but no way I would pay that much to live there. TX, FL are bets states to run businesses and the car scene
Yep! Thanks man, I just never had the time to learn professional edits on a computer with my lifestyle, but winter is coming and I need a break from all this stuff so I’ll learn then!
Good luck, figure out life and be happy. I have a Snow White Pearl GT1. Loved watching your stinger content. Won’t be watching any of your audi content in all honesty but there is a huge community there as well. You’ll be fine, cowboy the fuck up and attack life! Full send.
Hey man, love your channel. I’ve talked to you about the audi before. But I was just wondering if I could buy some of the minor mods off the audi if you do end up selling it. Cause mods don’t really add a lot of value to a car, so let me know man. If not that’s totally fine. Keep it up, you got this shit man!
I’ll keep you posted, that is true. My car is worth 18.5k according to the bank, but that value is stock. My car is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. In my thinking, a clean b8 or 8.5 is going to run 20-23k (for one that isn’t clapped with records etc) then if someone were to put $20k in performance mods on like mine, they would be at $40k. It’s going to be interesting to see who gets it, I just hope it’s a subscriber, that’s why I haven’t even been looking at all the marketplace DMs
@@twn2rbo yeah fair enough, lots of those mods are super expensive. It sucks that mods don’t really tie into the “traditional value” of cars. best of luck to you man, if you decide you wanna sell some of the mods on it to make some extra $ let me know fs.
"no job so i had to sell the stinger... and got an X1 for the same money... " so why did you need sell the car if you got something else for the same money?
I have a 2008 Audi A4 S-line; Gray. I love my Audi.. LOVE IT. However, it now has 190k miles, rebuilt 2.0T engine, repainted and when you turn it on one amazing thing you see. I have NO ERROR codes. However, it took a LOT of time, patience and MONEY to get it there. Hell, even my brakes are painted red with some nice black rims. I would LOVE to get a Kia Stinger. That is my next car. However, I dont think I will get rid of my Audi either. I would lose $$$$ with the miles it has. But man, my Audi cost me much more money than a Kia Stinger would cost me. I have probably paid double/triple what I would pay for repairs on a Kia Stinger. Which I'm sure would be MUCH CHEAPER. Good luck on that Audi. When its new and nice it works great, but when it starts breaking down it WILL Cost you my friend. A LOT.
Sounds like you already know! The stinger is super reliable, but after 500 wheel, things break . I’ve got quite a few emails from subscribers with stinger and g70 who don’t do social media and have insane builds, but the 450-480 seems to be the sweet spot. You can now beef up the trans and rear diff though, so with the new big turbo kits and full e85 we will be seeing 700 wheel builds in no time
I’m still saving up for a Kia Stinger. You do t see some of the older ones on the road. I don’t want the newest one with auto start stop. I want a more classic look. I have only modified my Audi to about 250 horsepower. I thought about going extreme but it’s my daily driver. I would hate to put more money on repairs when it starts breaking down faster from all that added power lol. I think a Kia Stinger could take much more abuse easily since it was an Audi and BMW team that helped design it
Those are awesome! I have one of those on my channel too. For the TCU, you won’t find a better value than Lozic. If you have Instagram, send him a DM and say you seen my channel. He is most responsive on there, he spent $7k on a website but something has gone wrong with it. He just moved here from the states.
Hey, Thank You. Really I mean that. Thing is, You seem very much legit and honest as well. I get it I do, As I suspect your viewers do to. How ever man, Why/ I mean Really, Why get rid of a car that pleases you, just to get the very same car that is in competition with the Kia Stinger? I mean really. That makes absolutely no since at all period. And seems to lack merit. I mean, Why? What's the end goal here? I suspect you wanted a Audi all along, Right? But you had a family and a little child to support and well, that kind of Kool-Aid, simply doesn't mix. Why? MAn? THe Audi cost you allot of $$ and You and I both know I'm right. So it does remain... Why Man ? Really, Why?
Watch the video before and you would have seen the reason. Next will be c63s coupe, RS3 or TTRS. Not sure yet, I’m putting all my money in Apple stock again.
@twn2rbo As I said. You are awesome. And cool ad well. I know you are a great father and wonderful friend you us you tubers... but man you still have not answered truthfully, why youbgave up the Stinger, for a Audio, because strait up. That's exactly what you did you did.
We watch for your personality and car related content. We don't watch for you to blame others for your choice to work in a highly cyclical industry. That was your choice.
Nah man your wilding, an 8V IROZ RS3 is the fastest car your going to get for you buck. dusting the fastest Kia in the world, dusting any mercedez, every modified audi besides it's twin TTRS and a R8. Like your really entertaining slow random build cars when there's an obvious fast, well put together, Trophy winning setup out here that can hang with the big boys. What are we doing here man.
TTRS or RS3 will be what I get if this c63s coupe doesn’t work, but those cars you are talking about are around $70k. My Stinger GT AWD I got brand new for only $43k, that’s hard to beat. I didn’t care much about the name when I seen who engineered it and it came with 100k mile warranty.
@@twn2rbo nah brotha, im talking about the previous model not the new one. The new one no one has figured out how to even tune yet. The 8V RS3 you can get for 40-50k. Idk about all the warranty stuff, im just talking performance. Now modding isn’t exactly cheap on it but whatever you want to do is there 500-1100whp(1300 with nos). Only from IROZ motorsports would be my suggestion though. I see other cars that aren’t and not getting good results/performance. No im not affiliated, thats just what I’ve seen and their the only rs3 at TX2K for a reason. If buying the car and getting mods( well you could make a series about building by piece) ontop is kind of out of the budget understandable but that’s the best AWD anything your going to get under 110k car alone performance wise. besides a old gtr, which has more hp application but I don’t think thats what you want haha.
@@catchavibe8418 yeah that RS3 I really like. I’m 6’1” and fit great in the S4, all Audis seem to have plenty of headroom and space. RS3 still holds the world record for the fastest Audi to this date, I believe. What year the is 8V? You def seem to know more than I about them. What is 8v?
@@twn2rbo The 8V A3, S3, is the previous model platform used from 2013-2020 and 2015-2020 for RS3. Im 5’9 so i fit pretty good in these smaller cars. if you want to see how you fit just find a 2015-2023 A3 or S3, their all the same size. Can’t fault you if you don’t fit comfortably haha. Yea the IROZ RS3 holds the qaurter-mile record for RS3. that records faster than any modded audi outside of the R8 (well you can put the TTRS in there since it’s the same car). But yea there is nothing touching this AWD wise until you get to the big 3 R8,GTR,Lamborghini in the modded community. You pull up on any other bmw,mercedez, jaguar etc any stock super car or even most modded ones in a fully modded RS3 and your smoking them. They don’t put up the numbers like it does. If you haven’t already when you have some time I’d recommend just looking up videos on youtube searching IROZ RS3. The one titled “ 1300HP Audi RS3 family sedan-“ from That Racing Channel gives you a pretty good look at what they do!
@@catchavibe8418 dude thanks so much! Will do. Hey if you like the B9 RS5, we will be pushing it stage 2 dp, exhaust, etc. with 034motorsports. We just ordered their brake kit, will be here soon! I like the TTRS, I can get a coupe bc I daily a Camry being a single dad. Thanks bro!
Problem number 1. You financed your car. Unless you're buying something really expensive like a house, you should never finance a car, just means you can't afford it. Especially if you finance it then can't put enough down to keep from being upside down in payments. I'm not against financing a car, but if you do, at least pay enough upfront so that you are not upside down. Sorry to hear it dude.
UA-cam paid for the car, sponsors send parts, I invest my money in Apple and other investments. I wouldn’t spend money on a car personally. But I prob will on my c63s bc it’s a dream car of mine I will have, just need Apple to go back up.
@@twn2rbo not too shabby. I recently bought a 2023 G70 3.3t Sport prestige. Absolutely killer car. While performance is fun, it's just not quite as exciting as a BMW or Audi to drive. Definitely the best looking car on the raid hands down tho
@@CyberSkunk90 audi driving experience is the best so far. The g80 m3 was bad ass as well, total difference of a car. The Stinger is like a perfect daily option, esp for ppl w a family or want to throw a snow board in and drive up the mountains in the winter. Very versatile. Love the g70 too

✌️ thanks for stopping by! If you need any DIY references for Installs, I will always keep them up
@twn2rbo thank you
Only thing I need to do with my car is fix a p0014/p0017, haven't driven it in months because of this.
Running full E85 on CPI Lap3 2.5. Stock HPFP
🔥🔥🔥🔥 share some #’s! You have a Dragy?
@twn2rbo I need to someday yes I have a draggy. I think with practice I can hit low 11's maybe
Bro you edit on your iphone? That is amazing
Yep! Thanks man, I just never had the time to learn professional edits on a computer with my lifestyle, but winter is coming and I need a break from all this stuff so I’ll learn then!
Good luck, figure out life and be happy.
I have a Snow White Pearl GT1. Loved watching your stinger content. Won’t be watching any of your audi content in all honesty but there is a huge community there as well. You’ll be fine, cowboy the fuck up and attack life! Full send.
🖤 🖤 💯
Came for the S4 content but I would’ve subbed sooner if I found your channel when you were making stinger content
Stinger is a sick car man! Appreciate the comment, we are going to be pushing a b9 rs5 to stage 2+ next , still on fence for next car
Wish you all the success anyway it’s not the car it’s you
Life happens Nick, and the weird turbo sounds it's the waste gate actuators it is common nothing dangerous but annoying.
Hang in there 👍
Hey man, love your channel. I’ve talked to you about the audi before. But I was just wondering if I could buy some of the minor mods off the audi if you do end up selling it. Cause mods don’t really add a lot of value to a car, so let me know man. If not that’s totally fine. Keep it up, you got this shit man!
I’ll keep you posted, that is true. My car is worth 18.5k according to the bank, but that value is stock. My car is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. In my thinking, a clean b8 or 8.5 is going to run 20-23k (for one that isn’t clapped with records etc) then if someone were to put $20k in performance mods on like mine, they would be at $40k. It’s going to be interesting to see who gets it, I just hope it’s a subscriber, that’s why I haven’t even been looking at all the marketplace DMs
@@twn2rbo yeah fair enough, lots of those mods are super expensive. It sucks that mods don’t really tie into the “traditional value” of cars. best of luck to you man, if you decide you wanna sell some of the mods on it to make some extra $ let me know fs.
"no job so i had to sell the stinger... and got an X1 for the same money... " so why did you need sell the car if you got something else for the same money?
Both identical in performance
I have a 2008 Audi A4 S-line; Gray. I love my Audi.. LOVE IT. However, it now has 190k miles, rebuilt 2.0T engine, repainted and when you turn it on one amazing thing you see. I have NO ERROR codes. However, it took a LOT of time, patience and MONEY to get it there. Hell, even my brakes are painted red with some nice black rims. I would LOVE to get a Kia Stinger. That is my next car. However, I dont think I will get rid of my Audi either. I would lose $$$$ with the miles it has. But man, my Audi cost me much more money than a Kia Stinger would cost me. I have probably paid double/triple what I would pay for repairs on a Kia Stinger. Which I'm sure would be MUCH CHEAPER. Good luck on that Audi. When its new and nice it works great, but when it starts breaking down it WILL Cost you my friend. A LOT.
Sounds like you already know! The stinger is super reliable, but after 500 wheel, things break . I’ve got quite a few emails from subscribers with stinger and g70 who don’t do social media and have insane builds, but the 450-480 seems to be the sweet spot. You can now beef up the trans and rear diff though, so with the new big turbo kits and full e85 we will be seeing 700 wheel builds in no time
I’m still saving up for a Kia Stinger. You do t see some of the older ones on the road. I don’t want the newest one with auto start stop. I want a more classic look. I have only modified my Audi to about 250 horsepower. I thought about going extreme but it’s my daily driver. I would hate to put more money on repairs when it starts breaking down faster from all that added power lol. I think a Kia Stinger could take much more abuse easily since it was an Audi and BMW team that helped design it
I just got a tribute edition stinger and want to do some moding to it any links to good TCU's I can get?
Those are awesome! I have one of those on my channel too. For the TCU, you won’t find a better value than Lozic. If you have Instagram, send him a DM and say you seen my channel. He is most responsive on there, he spent $7k on a website but something has gone wrong with it. He just moved here from the states.
Damn isn't Audi one of those unreliable luxury cars like BMW and Benz? Even when great care and maintenance. Still a great looking car! 👍👍👍
Welcome to V.A.G
Love my Stinger, and best wishes to you; hopefully the family courts were fair to you as a man (the courts often favour the women).
Hey, Thank You. Really I mean that. Thing is, You seem very much legit and honest as well. I get it I do, As I suspect your viewers do to. How ever man, Why/ I mean Really, Why get rid of a car that pleases you, just to get the very same car that is in competition with the Kia Stinger? I mean really. That makes absolutely no since at all period. And seems to lack merit. I mean, Why? What's the end goal here? I suspect you wanted a Audi all along, Right? But you had a family and a little child to support and well, that kind of Kool-Aid, simply doesn't mix. Why? MAn? THe Audi cost you allot of $$ and You and I both know I'm right. So it does remain...
Why Man ? Really, Why?
Watch the video before and you would have seen the reason. Next will be c63s coupe, RS3 or TTRS. Not sure yet, I’m putting all my money in Apple stock again.
@twn2rbo As I said. You are awesome. And cool ad well. I know you are a great father and wonderful friend you us you tubers... but man you still have not answered truthfully, why youbgave up the Stinger, for a Audio, because strait up. That's exactly what you did you did.
cool
We watch for your personality and car related content. We don't watch for you to blame others for your choice to work in a highly cyclical industry. That was your choice.
Appreciate that and would agree, though now I underwrite in a different industry, still volatile, but much much less. Appreciate the support man!
Why I sold my Kia for an Audi...... 🤣 Why does that even need explanation?
Nah man your wilding, an 8V IROZ RS3 is the fastest car your going to get for you buck. dusting the fastest Kia in the world, dusting any mercedez, every modified audi besides it's twin TTRS and a R8. Like your really entertaining slow random build cars when there's an obvious fast, well put together, Trophy winning setup out here that can hang with the big boys. What are we doing here man.
TTRS or RS3 will be what I get if this c63s coupe doesn’t work, but those cars you are talking about are around $70k. My Stinger GT AWD I got brand new for only $43k, that’s hard to beat. I didn’t care much about the name when I seen who engineered it and it came with 100k mile warranty.
@@twn2rbo nah brotha, im talking about the previous model not the new one. The new one no one has figured out how to even tune yet. The 8V RS3 you can get for 40-50k. Idk about all the warranty stuff, im just talking performance. Now modding isn’t exactly cheap on it but whatever you want to do is there 500-1100whp(1300 with nos). Only from IROZ motorsports would be my suggestion though. I see other cars that aren’t and not getting good results/performance. No im not affiliated, thats just what I’ve seen and their the only rs3 at TX2K for a reason. If buying the car and getting mods( well you could make a series about building by piece) ontop is kind of out of the budget understandable but that’s the best AWD anything your going to get under 110k car alone performance wise. besides a old gtr, which has more hp application but I don’t think thats what you want haha.
@@catchavibe8418 yeah that RS3 I really like. I’m 6’1” and fit great in the S4, all Audis seem to have plenty of headroom and space. RS3 still holds the world record for the fastest Audi to this date, I believe. What year the is 8V? You def seem to know more than I about them. What is 8v?
@@twn2rbo The 8V A3, S3, is the previous model platform used from 2013-2020 and 2015-2020 for RS3. Im 5’9 so i fit pretty good in these smaller cars. if you want to see how you fit just find a 2015-2023 A3 or S3, their all the same size. Can’t fault you if you don’t fit comfortably haha. Yea the IROZ RS3 holds the qaurter-mile record for RS3. that records faster than any modded audi outside of the R8 (well you can put the TTRS in there since it’s the same car). But yea there is nothing touching this AWD wise until you get to the big 3 R8,GTR,Lamborghini in the modded community. You pull up on any other bmw,mercedez, jaguar etc any stock super car or even most modded ones in a fully modded RS3 and your smoking them. They don’t put up the numbers like it does. If you haven’t already when you have some time I’d recommend just looking up videos on youtube searching IROZ RS3. The one titled “ 1300HP Audi RS3 family sedan-“ from That Racing Channel gives you a pretty good look at what they do!
@@catchavibe8418 dude thanks so much! Will do. Hey if you like the B9 RS5, we will be pushing it stage 2 dp, exhaust, etc. with 034motorsports. We just ordered their brake kit, will be here soon! I like the TTRS, I can get a coupe bc I daily a Camry being a single dad. Thanks bro!
Problem number 1. You financed your car. Unless you're buying something really expensive like a house, you should never finance a car, just means you can't afford it. Especially if you finance it then can't put enough down to keep from being upside down in payments. I'm not against financing a car, but if you do, at least pay enough upfront so that you are not upside down. Sorry to hear it dude.
UA-cam paid for the car, sponsors send parts, I invest my money in Apple and other investments. I wouldn’t spend money on a car personally. But I prob will on my c63s bc it’s a dream car of mine I will have, just need Apple to go back up.
@@twn2rbo not too shabby. I recently bought a 2023 G70 3.3t Sport prestige. Absolutely killer car. While performance is fun, it's just not quite as exciting as a BMW or Audi to drive. Definitely the best looking car on the raid hands down tho
@@CyberSkunk90 audi driving experience is the best so far. The g80 m3 was bad ass as well, total difference of a car. The Stinger is like a perfect daily option, esp for ppl w a family or want to throw a snow board in and drive up the mountains in the winter. Very versatile. Love the g70 too
kia stinger has pretty good performance , unfortunately its just ugly looking
