Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

[stoopid]

Saw another Ceramic Silver Stinger Saturday evening on I-170N at I-70. Didn't get a chance to catch up to give a heads nod but I talked the horn as it exited to I-70.

Camber on their rear wheels doesn't quite look right to me...

Damn. You ruined that picture. I "like" that you posted a pic, but really, what is up with this license plate panic?

Is that Fairmont? We take our Boxer there, sometimes in the Stinger ... wouldn't that have been a hoot - a set outside!

I agree. I don't like my plate posted around either. Never know who is reading these forums....

. . . what is up with this license plate panic?

I'm with Grump and JSolo. Better to be overcautious when you are vastly increasing your audience or showing photos of strangers' cars, as we do in an online forum.

Old article, but interesting:
Should You Bother Obscuring Your License Plates In Photos?
I like the rules at the end.

Explain it, please: what is the "daaanguuur" of having a license plate on the Net? This just seems seriously paranoid.

^^If some leo was to review your posts about driving at felonious speeds, providing your license plate only makes it that much easier to identify. Don't you value your privacy?

I don’t do most social media (except LinkedIn and that is too much. Although I do this forum too if that counts) and never have. The amount of info you can get online is unreal. Unfortunately, privacy is disappearing. The best thing people can do is minimize their online footprint.

I've been online in some form or other since the early 90's, before there was "internet". Someone early on reinforced the concept of maintaining one's anonymity online. That is, don't post your name, address, phone number, dob, ssn, or other personal information. You never know what weirdos are out there or may decide to stalk you. This idea has kept with me. I have a fb account but the last posting there was probably 8 years ago. No instagram, twatter, tic tack or others. Sadly much of today's youth doesn't realize anything posted online is permanent.

I often use craigslist as a sort of local garage sale platform. Never give out my actual phone number, instead use a google voice provided number.

The number of ppl with access to the North American license plate DB has got to be staggering. I don't want my name and address on the internet, it's that simple. I also have personalized plates that play on my real name.

Indeed it is!

Saw silver ceramic one in Niles, IL today ~13:30, turning south onto Lehigh from westbound Howard. Waved to the guy, got a strange look.

This is the reaction I get when I wave to other Stingers....

SWP in background of a news bulletin tonight. Seems there was a stabbing in a Sydney suburb which police are treating as a "domestic violence incident". The victim, a male, will make a recovery and a female is in custody.

Wrecked and raided. Pour one out.

75 S today near exit 200.
She looked over but no real acknowledgement. After i passed i dropped my window and waved because im nice like that.

This was a new one for me. I'm in the outside (slow) lane, minding my own business. Some yout (from my cousin vinny...) pulls up next to me in some sh!tbox with a fart can. It's mid afternoon, rush hour traffic around here (really, it starts about 1300), so i'm taking my time getting up to speed. Anyway, he proceeds to make as much noise as possible (my windows are closed).

I’ve had several boneheaded youngsters in those WRXs with the giant spoiler ride my ass trying to get me to race. Just because I drive a Stinger doesn’t mean I want to race every car I encounter.
