Imagine what the Commodore could do if it were running twin turbo's like the Stinger :wink:

Ford had a similar problem with their Falcons, the 4ltr 6cyl's had no problem showing up their 8cyl bigger brother.

Think I still prefer the sound of the V8...

That will certainly help to sell the Kia, but not to me. There are lots of things I look at before outright performance.

Wonder how their real world economy compares?

I've heard a rumour there is a white Stinger V6 turbo sitting in the Qld Police depot ready for evaluation. Looks smick apparantly.

Be interesting to see them in the flesh. I quite liked the Optima styling (the outside more so than the inside)

bit of a joke as I have personally seen the last model falcon gt that uses the v8 supercharged motor and it was stock off showroom and did quarter in 11's at over 200kph trap speed.

The person I spoke to couldn't stop gushing about how good it looked. I think he might have been in love...
