Koreans has made luxury line of their brand it call Kia Stinger they really upgrade their design. The car to me look like BMW front with Audi back, interior from Mercedes and Audi
I hate the front end. The rear is the only part of the car I think looks good... and only in red, with those ridiculous rear side lights wrapping around.
The interior, yet another blatant Mercedes rip-off.
KIA is like the equivalent of Eclipse, a cheap Chinese knockoff company that makes an MP3 player that looks as much as possible as an IPod, but doesn't function nearly as well if at all.
I'm amazed they haven't been subjected to fines and lawsuits for copying other manufacturers.

If Kia really wants to compete with luxury car brands, they should probably start at their own logo. What a boring, bland emblem. Front end looks purely Kia, which is terrible.
Hyundai learned the best way to make a luxury hyundai, was to make it not look like a Hyundai
Hyundai has an identify problem similar to Toyota and Honda in the 70-80s. They've built a lot of cheap copies and offered some really good values but people just view them as cheap copies. They only copied appliance vehicles and have competed on performance. Every Hyundai gets good marks for looks but bad marks on driving dynamics. While the Genesis sports car gets high marks for power and value but very little credit for driving experience. It loses in that area to lesser power cars such as the Subaru BRZ and Mazda Miata.
They don't really have much variety in the sports sedan sector. What is their niche sports sedan and utility sports crossover?
Every car brand has 1-2 niche halo car that defines the brand's capability. Hyundai has none.

Honda did have some success with the Honda CRX, Acura Legend & Integra....and even the NSX. Yes, it wasn't the 70-80s. With Toyota it was the Lexus LS400, Toyota Supra, Toyota Cressida, etc...late 80s to early 90s.
If they plan to compete against BMW 3 series or 5 series (I assume that given the size of this Stinger), its a very very crowded field in the 30-50 grand msrp price.
