Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

[Joseph Spiegel]

About 6PM last night (12/13/18) I was driving North on the 405 crossing the hill into the Valley. To my left front was a blue Stinger. Honked and pulled aside. It was dark so not sure I made contact, paper plates so very new. Maybe doesn’t know we’re all crazy to see another one. Are you here yet?

Silver stinger opposite side of Union Hill 12:30 ish today. I gave a “peace out”... I doubt they noticed.

Haven't seen another Stinger for awhile but I did see Superman's new mode of transport yesterday.

I see a white GT on the Dallas North tollway about every other day heading home from work. I'll have to start honking.

I went to a Utah Grizzlies hockey game first weekend in October. Parked far away from everyone else. When the game was over, a blue one had parked itself right next to me. And a BMW parked on the other side of the blue one.

Saw another white stinger in Alpharetta pass on the other side of the road. I tossed up a But got nada back.

I live in north east Ohio (akron) and have not seen a single stinger. I also am frequently around kent ohio and sometimes canton and still see nothing. However, my gf said she saw one in fairlawn ohio on her way home from work today. Not sure if it was a gt or a 2.0T she didn't see what trim it was. Lucky her because I have yet to see one.

Spotted a Stinger today, we were going into Werribee on route to the Pacific shopping centre and it was on the other side of the road leaving Werribee.It was a black one.Haven't seen one for weeks and that's the third one Iv'e seen since they were released.

So last Thursday, my coworker was talking about test driving vehicles this past weekend. She mentioned a Mercedes SUV, an Audi S5, some kind of BMW, and a few others. I casually offered her a chance to drive my Stinger. She did, and she loved it. She researched cars a lot on Friday and told me she had appts to test drive 4 cars but she would not buy anything that weekend. I was like, sure you wont buy. She insisted she wouldn't. Today she came in and told me she got the white 2019 GT2 AWD with the red Nappa leather.

You should have a picture of that!

Sounds exactly like me. I went half a year before seeing my first "Wild" Stinger. I've only seen two on my own (three total, with the help of my grandson).

Make sure your gf is not mistaking Optimas for Stingers. Early on, Optimas caught me out; they are c. the same size, just a few inches taller: and until you mark the signature features of the Stinger (side brake vents, "stinger" projecting tail light reflector, hood "vents" and massive brake scoops - without lights in them), the Optima is likely to confuse: it's similar enough in a quick pass to be claimed as a "sighting" unless or until the Stinger is so well known that even the swiftest passing glance confirms its ID.

my girlfriend told me she saw a blue one the other day, I was a bit skeptical because I've never seen another one around here. I asked her if she was sure it wasn't another Kia like an Optima and she said "Well it said STINGER on the back in the middle like yours" so I guess there is at least one other one around here somewhere lol

Micro Blue Stinger heading south on Pacific Hwy Ourimbah about 6:10 this morning while I was driving home from work. Shot him a wave as I drove past heading the other way, don’t think he saw me. It’s the first blue one other than my own I’ve seen on the Coast, but I know they’re around somewhere because my workmates tell me they saw me driving somewhere when I was actually somewhere else so maybe they saw this one instead

I have never seen micro blue in the wild only on meets. Had the Stinger a year so I have been looking. Always see white and have seen yellow only once.
