Kia StingerKia absolutely knocked it out of the park with the Stinger, a 300-horsepower turbocharged rear-wheel drive sport sedan. There's not a lot that can go wrong with that formula, and even better, the Stinger retails at $36,690 for the base GT-Line trim, which is definitely the higher end of the affordability spectrum.You get a lot for the money. Leather heated seats are standard, as are 18-inch wheels and an eight-speed transmission with paddle shifters as a sporty touch. Not to mention, giant Brembo brakes are also part of the standard package. If you are willing to spend a little more, all-wheel drive can be added as a $2,200 option, which strangely includes a heated steering wheel as an added bonus. Additionally, a sunroof and a Harmon Kardon sound system can be tacked on for $2,300. If $4,500 of options is too rich for your blood, no matter, as a bone stock Stinger can still accelerate to 60 miles per hour from a dead stop in a fairly quick 5.3 seconds.
