I could see the cars move as they came to a halt in the videos. And I could see slight differences in the amount of movement. What I said is that I could not see what appeared to be significant differences. When a car is being stopped, I expect the body to move. A true sports car might have virtually no nose dip or forward movement of the body upon coming to a complete stop. The Stinger is not a sports car and was never intended to be compared to a true sports car. Neither is it a high end German independent suspension equipped GT. The McPherson strut layout in front is very good at getting high performance handling and ride for less building cost and upkeep. It isn't going to track as flat cornering or braking as a wishbone top and bottom layout.
So if I conduct a braking experiment in the dark and watch my headlights I am going to see them dip when I come to a complete stop; and then they are going to move back up and down and come to rest. But normal braking in traffic is not going to indicate anything to me other than that these brakes are by magnitudes the best I have ever had. I doubt that I will feel what you are talking about.
I've hit my brakes in an emergency stop maybe three times. And I was just gratified that they did what they are supposed to do extremely well: slam to a quick stop. There was no "jelly roll", just sudden, utter quiet and motionlessness. And the sound of my breath letting out.
