I loved the Stinger concept that came out a couple of years ago. I just spoke to a local salesman and asked if he heard any rumors about production. His response was no, but they've got a great new van they could show me. No thanks.

You expected anything different than that answer?

Is it really such a stretch to think that something else might be made from the bones of the Genesis Coupe?

They're too busy with other things.....probably trying to figure out what the next civic will look like so the forte mirrors it.

No, but I can dream, can't I?

I loved the detail in the A-pillars on that concept. It would never make production, but it was well done.

That was the only car I gave a damn about at last year's auto show.

Any fact based sites to say it's definitely NOT going into production, because all indications and news reports I've seen over the last year still point to production status.

But is there a new Rondo available?

The Rio and Forte don't really make my radar, but the rest of the 2015 Kia lineup is solid. Given how small sport coupes are doing in the market right now, I can totally see why Kia would decide to sit on the Stinger.

On the flip side, I am really looking forward to them bring the Soul EV to the Atlanta market this year:

Except the forte looks better than any recent civic.
