Hello there, and welcome to the official fan page for the Kia Stinger! š
Okay, this isnāt technically an official anything; I just REALLY love the Kia Stinger and want Kia to just sorta, maybe let me have one for freeā¦ Sound like a bad idea? Itās not! Let me tell you why.
Educate Yourself: Learn more about the Stinger to understand my obsession
First, a little backstory
Ah, yes. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was at the 2018 Chicago Auto Show working as an editorial photographer for The News Wheel. As I made my way to the back left corner of the North Hall of McCormick Place, I saw something sparkling in the distance. It was, of course, a deep blue, West Coast Customs Kia Stinger with flared fenders and gigantic silver rims. I was so enamored with the vehicle that I had to send a tweet to all 182 of my dedicated followers, letting them know of my newfound love.
Confession: Iām obsessed with the Kia Stinger, especially this West Coast Customs GT at #CAS18. š¤© pic.twitter.com/M6LHBwgdCb

Fast forward to today
As an automotive journalist, I see and read about a lot of cars on the daily. But no car has made my heart race as much as the Kia Stinger. The next year at Chicago, I eagerly claimed the Kia section among my fellow TNW photographers just so I could visit my #CarGoals. Back in Ohio, I saw a red Stinger GT parked outside a Rapid Fired Pizza during my lunch break one day and audibly whined in jealousy. (Yeah, thereās probably something wrong with me. Whatever.)
Anywho, let me tell you why itād be a FANTASTIC IDEA for Kia to just let me have a Stinger foā free! ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Hot Tip: Improving your fuel economy is easy with this advice
I would post SO MANY PHOTOS on social media
Sure, I donāt have millions of followers on social media like Global Brand Ambassadors BLACKPINK, but Iād like to think I have a good collection of āaverage American car buyersā on my list of followers. And isnāt that who youāre trying to target, Kia? In the event that I do acquire a Kia Stinger, I would even go as far as creating a separate account for me and my Stinger. Wait, did I just come up with my username? *creates Instagram profile*
Iām not saying I would get a Kia Stinger tattoo, but Iām also not saying I wouldnātā¦

Think about the PR!
Woman writes story about her love for Kia and tweets at them endlessly. Kia gifts woman with brand new, blue 2019 Kia Stinger GT1 with all-wheel drive. Woman creates Instagram profile specifically for Kia Stinger (and includes dogs in most of the photos). Wow! So cool! Kia is awesome!!!
Seriously, Kiaā¦ think about it.
Sincerely,
Morgan, your #1 Kia Stinger fan
