    Intro is too long, thought I accidentally clicked a music video

      No kidding. 5:20 long intro is no bueno.

    The side vents acutally do work, the airflow through the front end cools the brakes and exits through the vent behind the wheel.
    But yes the ones on the hood are fake, if it really bothers someone, drill some holes in it and bam it does something

    • @tylerdurden8939
      @tylerdurden8939 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am a huge fan of the stinger and just test drove one yesterday actually. The one thing I disliked was the fake vents. I think it really takes away from the rest of the car. Other than that amazing car

    • @langleyfilmltd
      @langleyfilmltd 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thankfully the aftermarket support for the vehicle is growing fast enough to replace the hood with one that has real vents if it's an apparent deal breaker. I've owned mine since December 2017 and I've been told by my Kia dealer that the support for this car is getting pushed hard for parts. SHouldn't have a problem finding a new hood, maybe carbon fiber with real vents now or in the near future

    • @isaurobanuelos499
      @isaurobanuelos499 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      im sure someone will make aftermarket real vents for the turbos

    • @sugarnads
      @sugarnads 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Annnd screw up the airflow under the bonnet as designed by the engineers.

  • @bloodycrashboy

    great review, thanks for your honesty
    I have been looking at this car for a while and love the red leather interior
    now just need to convince the wife that she needs one

    The first 1:40 was amazing, the editing and the scenery was 11/10. I had to stop the video to comment that and like it before continuing.
    Edit: the rest of the video was great as well, rip the drone

    • @SebDelanney
      @SebDelanney  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Haha thanks! Hope you enjoy the rest of the video!

  • @bentennyson2398
    @bentennyson2398 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    This video deserves a like for the intro on it's own it was bloody epic, honestly if you hosted your own car program I'd say millions would watch it because you're that good at what you do. I've watched your channel since day one, and you've come a long way well done seb.

    • @SebDelanney
      @SebDelanney  6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    My god Seb the videography in this video is insane, really enjoyed this one! Loved hearing you talk about the Stinger. I'm a Kia driver and just upgraded to a Kia Cee'd 4 platinum pack and love it!
    Keep up the good work!

  • @milandekkers2795
    @milandekkers2795 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    LOVE THE VIDEO! car is mad aswell!! keep it up man! the quality is insane on this one. too bad you dont get the reach you deserve!

  • @sw651
    @sw651 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I agree with a lot of the other comments, quality is great, I look forward to seeing your videos more now. Great job on all the videos lately.

  • @dabig_guy2204
    @dabig_guy2204 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your ability to grab the attention of searching for a drone and then doing the car review was fantastic. Sorry about the loss of your drone. At some point you can always attempt a second rescue of the flash card. Great work.

  • @navboi12
    @navboi12 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Video quality has come a long way since 50k subs. Props!

  • @St1ngerGuy
    @St1ngerGuy 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review man. I have a GT2 here in the states and I agree with pretty much everything you've said. There are lots of bolt on performance options and about 8 different types of exhausts available for those that might think this car isn't taken seriously in the performance department. These things are quick :)

  • @bwebmasta1
    @bwebmasta1 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Seb, I just happened to find this video. Great review, thoughtful content on this car. I was "on the fence" with this car due to I currently drive a CLS63. After seeing them in person in detail I'm impressed. Kia is very high on the reliability ratings as well. Subbed.

  • @joec.5009
    @joec.5009 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    great job! keep it up mate. i loved everything about it. everything was on point. and it's a fine looking car. what a marvelous job by kia.

  • @kayineson4220
    @kayineson4220 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    The shots are incredible!! I love the opening shots. Plus the music at the beginning I was singing along! Loved it and that Kia is incredible I love it!! Underrated as a car

    • @SebDelanney

    The vents near the tires are actually functional. Only the ones on the hood are fake. The vents help cool the brakes.

  • @BrandoDrum
    @BrandoDrum 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Funny, I'm thinking of replacing my 2008 Subaru Outback with this car. The outback makes 175hp and gets me 22 mpg average for me in mixed driving - it's ancient 4 speed automatic zaps gas like you wouldn't believe in city driving. I get 26 MPG max average on a long highway trip. I'm pretty sure I'd average about 22 or 23 MPG in a Stinger based on what I've read. Slightly more for Premium fuel but it would make up the cost difference on trips. A good car is a good car!

  • @GTIracerr
    @GTIracerr 6 ปีที่แล้ว +39

    Keep up the good work, Seb. Quality content like this deserves way more views than you are currently getting. Viewing numbers do not reflect the video quality on this channel lately. Which is a shame, but don't let it put you off.

      @Iridered702 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Seb Delanney your doing it right brother. I love that you took us with u to hunt for the drone. Take us on your adventures. That’s what we want to see. Well done. Can’t wait for the next episode

  • @FalconXE302
    @FalconXE302 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nice Video Seb... but don't try and pick holes in the "touch of some surfaces" when the car is sold at an "everyday price" for everyday people. At the price you are always going to have "plastics" in the cars interior.

    I have GT1 from US and no automatic lift gate. Such a shame. I couldn't find the color and interior I wanted in GT2 which is the only GT trim with it if I'm not mistaken. The GT-S trim looks like a fantastic option.

  • @wolbi01
    @wolbi01 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    These Stingers are German engineered. The car was engineered by a former BMW M Vice President of Engineering. Pretty sure there is purpose behind the use of these vents, such as cooling? So I guess the vents on the BMW M3's M4's etc... are fake too. LOL

    Does it has a manual mode for the gearbox? I was not able to find that function when did the test drive and it got me completely dissapointed.
    A disobeyed gearbox is just enough to avoid considering a car, no matter the price, the performance or the looks. And even worse for rear drive.

    I just don't understand why in UK this is called GTS when everywhere in the world it's simply GT. If Kia one day decides to make a even more powerful version and call it GTS worldwide, what is Kia UK going to call it?! GTS Plus?! GTRS?! Kia UK likes to complicate things... 😜

    This is a German mistake actually.
    We need a car not a plastic rubber. We know the price is fabulous, but it is really rubbish cheep plastic assembly. BMW and Mercedes has a quality plastic and materials plus engineering performance. Kia life is short after 5 years you will get lots of problems. Because, it is not a just design of body or Shane 🚗. Quality first, safety and security , comfortable and price of curse . Thanks
    In my 4 year experience, Kia rubbish customer service and support in UK.

      2. If a collaboration at least pay for half the drone.
      Asking your followers to buy one shows u as a cheapskate.
