Sad to this one come to an end. It’s the car many of us asked for but, apparently, not enough of us purchased.

The Kia Stinger will end its run with the Tribute Edition. The special Stinger will feature several unique touches to commemorate its run.
Steel Matte Gray will be offered exclusively as an exterior color, with Ascot Green also available.
The Stinger will feature black-accented details, including exhaust tips, Brembo brake calipers, side mirrors and model-exclusive 19-inch alloy wheels.
Inside, there are Terracotta Nappa leather-trimmed seats featuring a custom logo, a synthetic suede headliner and simulated carbon fiber interior trim.
Each Tribute Edition comes with its own numbered door sill plate.
Pricing starts at $53,390 for the RWD version. The AWD model retails for $55,590.
The automaker will manufacture only 1000 of these cars, with 440 allocated for the U.S. Existing Kia customers and hand raisers will be among the first to receive word of the Tribute’s availability at dealers.

I really liked the stingers I've driven, and I'm sad (but not surprised) to see this model go. I can't believe Kia actually put the car into production, but I guess they've sold enough Tellurides to offset the loss.

I enjoyed the few times I've been in one. It was missing something and it never really captured my attention. Agreed that I'm said to see it go, it's the working mans Panamera and at least the enthusiast got it vs. it just being vaporware.
