Oh boy. Spoiler: they picked the Kia. The performance gap between these isn't as cavernous as you'd think even though the Charger put up a very good fight on paper. Which, I'll remind everyone, is why I liked the SS. It combines the more European athleticism with American muscle to create what I'd call sort of the ultimate combination of the two cars (unless you don't like the styling then, move along).
As I read and look at the specs, it occurs to me that the Kia Stinger GT is a cut-rate/discount version of the Cadillac CTS V-sport. Take a look for yourself. The overall footprint and numbers seem to stand right on top of the V-sport (which means the 365hp V6 is really overachieving). Interesting.
