Nice write-up, but correct me if I am wrong, I could not detect LED tails.

These look like LED's to me.

LOL, your eyes are better than mine, thanks.

Those are LED tails, but not LED turn signals. The LED turn signals have a very obvious appearance that mimics that of the cluster of LEDs on the front turn signals.

@TomTom26 posted this video

of a test drive by Germans on the island of Mallorca, Spain. I took these screens depicting the tester cycling through the tail lights because I believed that until recently, most/all test drives in North America were done with pre-production cars, documented by the fact, that some or all LEDs were missing in the tails. The tester mentioned that the only incandescent bulb was the white back-up light, and that could be upgraded too.

Notable is, that these GT's have covers over the cup holders.

Question to you, is this now a production Stinger?









This is the Fog Rear Light





The Back-up Light





The tester's comments are very positive, he liked the suspension set-up: not a sports-car, but a sporty car good for long distance travel....Thank you tomtom!
