    Next time you decide to street race...

    I had something similar nearly happen last summer. I live just outside town in the country a few miles. Before I bought the Stinger I had a prety fun turbo 5.0 mustang (notchback foxbody). I left my neighborhood one morning for work and got on our main road. After the first turn I saw a newer...

    Who uses an automatic car wash on their Stinger?

    I've actually developed a pretty good system of washing in my garage at home. I can do the whole car with about 3-4 gallons of water and don't feel I'm compromising by wiping dirt around. The trick I have found is to not let it get super bad firstly and keep it from drying if possible when it...

    Dash-Top Red Blinking LED ?

    It's mostly just a theft deterrent. It's a passive message, "don't mess with me, I'm armed or have advanced features to prevent you from stealing me. Maybe there's more to it but that's my take. It's pretty common on lots of newer vehicles.

    Transmission tail shaft leaks.

    If it were me, and based on your super low mileage, I would get in touch with Corporate. Be polite but firm and say you're not waiting and the circumstances the dealership claims are ridiculous. Tell them you want a buy back or a new vehicle. My bet is they would honor it if it is how you say...

    Where to pickup drive mode selection signal

    Anyone know if and where you are able to pickup a control signal for the different drive modes? I want to be able to tie in some auxillary devices while in sport or custom mode, mainly for exhaust cutouts etc. I haven't been able to find anything yet. Do any of the piggyback chips have...

    Love my Stinger, but a few...issues

    1. I haven't noticed sunroof noise but have only used it a handful of times because the low temps here 2. I haven't noticed the screen reboot or go dark. It does annoy me a bit that the startup disclaimer message seems to hang around a variable amount of time though. It's like it's running...

    New GT1 AWD / Panthera Metal / SE Michigan

    Thanks. I've definitely been looking hard at the piggyback chips available as well as intakes and doing some exhaust work at some point. It will get more power soon :). I plan on keeping it all pretty mild as I don't want to compromise ride quality or driveability too much. I had a 70mm...

    New GT1 AWD / Panthera Metal / SE Michigan

    I found that strange too and probably would have gone with the GT2 if it was available. The extra goodies weren't all that important to me in the end and I love the color. It's still the only one in the area I have seen.

    New GT1 AWD / Panthera Metal / SE Michigan

    Hi all, I actually have owned the car and been a member for about 2 months now but haven't had time to post! I picked up one of the few remaining 2018 Panthera Metal GT1 AWDs end of October. I lusted over this color because it's a little more subtle than the blue and reds. Finding one proved...
