LOL.

Kia and Hyundai are no longer "nice for the money", they are simply nice cars. I travel a lot for work and will pick a Kia or Hyundai over a Toyota any day of the week, they have nicer interiors and are nicer to drive. We had a 2017 Toyota Sienna XLE AWD that we bought from my parents and hated it, minimal and poorly designed features, cheaply made, poorly finished, just a crappy van all around. We tested all of the van options before buying a Ford Flex instead, and our favorite of the bunch was the Kia Sedona. Not being the type that cares about brand cachet, we would have absolutely bought one.

The Stinger is a great looking car but still uniquely styled, which hasn't been the case with past Korean cars. They are finally moving past the "me too" styling and developing their own design language, which is good. Kia hired the Audi design chief away from them 5-ish years ago and you can definitely see some Audi in their designs, particularly inside.
