Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

[Crisis]

Earlier this week, I saw two in 2 minutes (including the other red one in the city). Considering they've only sold about 6 in this market of 300K, that's pretty rare.

Are you being lazy or just unlucky? Because "down the street" means you see it from time to time at the very least, and you should provide your proof pic, or it isn't a real claim. This is sort of like bird watching. Only the proven sightings are impressive. All of these "I passed one going the other way" posts are second class. I have my camera ready. Dash cams are even better. Keep a hairy eye peeled and good hunting!

Lol, unlucky. I've seen the k900's out here and the obv forte/Optima. And I'll take a pic if it's in the driveway. (Its parked on a main road in the driveway). What's your preferred dash cam?

Saw a red Stinger drive right by my house in Gaithersburg, MD tonight. If you happen to be on these forums give me a shout. Wondering if its the same red one I saw at the beer store and on 270.

One that I don't have to install! I'm still looking into them.

I saw a new Blue GT parked a few blocks away from me in Hollywood, FL. I will be parked in front of his house to see who it is...just kidding

I haven’t seen one in weeks. Today I went (in the rain) to the Sunset GT HyperCar Show. Sunset Plaza in West Hollywood, CA. Lots of Ferraris, Lamborghinis, McLarens and Koenigseggs including a Jesko. I took a brunch break from the show with my friend. Going back to the show crossing Sunset Blvd. what was stopped at the light coming out of the driveway from the show (not showing the car as we weren’t allowed) was a ceramic GT. Like an idiot I was waving at the driver, thumbing up, pointing at myself to mime I have one too! That was me! Are you here?

What does that mean? "Not allowed"?

It wasn’t a typical show. To register to show you had to check off from a list of brands. Sadly Kia was’t among them. The only three exceptions I noted were, Rimac, Racsr and Nissan. The last one for a Skyline GTR with Canadian license plates.

Oh, I think I understand: you were not showing your car because Kia automobiles were not allowed. But you saw a Stinger coming out of the show, and didn't have your camera deployed.

I saw a Deep Chroma Blue heading northbound on Mamre Rd St. Mary’s just after 12 noon.

Exactly!

I've yet to see another Stinger since I got mine last week. I had seen a black Stinger (base) that lives near my area on the street and at QT once, and recently saw two Stinger GT's on the highway, one in white, the other in Silky Silver, both appeared lowered and modded (one had a spoiler and diffuser, the other appeared to be aftermarket exhaust).

 

[Menissalt]

I saw a royal purple one with E badges last Friday, the color threw me off and I wasn't sure it was a Stinger at first

Lol. Patience, Grasshopper. I was nearly six months in before I saw my first Stinger in the wild. Fourteen months in and I've still only seen eight total. (number four lives or stays just up the street from me and I've seen him half a dozen times, but he still only counts as ONE)

Well, on the other hand, not seeing them all over the place is a good thing, part of being in that exclusive club of sorts. When I had the Optima, I saw those everywhere.

 

[MerlintheMad]

I do see those everywhere, and I don't have one. At first I confused Optimas for Stingers. The rear lights on Chargers threw me: I thought the lighted bar between was some sort of aftermarket mod. That is such a newbie mistake.
