Has anyone seen any Stingers in the wild?

I just finally saw one for the first time yesterday on I-635 in north Dallas. It was a white 2.0 Stinger. Looked good. I spotted it from a long distance because I saw the distinctive tail lights, and then I drove alongside it for a bit in my GTI.

Yup, that is probably me. I leave my house just after 4:30 AM to make it up to Dulles North by 6 AM. Love where I live, but the commute is hell. Have him look for GRUAQT on the tag. :)
He said yup...you’re the one. That means we miss you by 10-30 min each morning. We leave Gainesville by 5:30.

That's when HOV is in effect. I try to get through 66 before HOV starts. One of the main reasons I leave as early as I do. I always look for you, now I know why I never see you. :)

I finally saw another GT (black) in Fullerton, CA during a rainy commute to work =D
 
I saw 5 today! At the zoo during my oil change...

None in the wild...
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
My wife ran into a blue AWD today at my company (Navy Federal) and talked to the guy a bit while I was finishing up a meeting.
 
Saw a killer Black GT this morn in Tempe. First one I've seen in the wild. Pulled up and had a quick chat at the light. Unicorns!
 
Both times I've seen one in the wild it's been when i was in the Sorento. Maybe Sorento's attract them...ll

Woohoo, finally, I saw a Black GT going through Macca’s Drive Thru while having coffee this morning at Bowral NSW.
 
Wow! Went to fill up at Costco yesterday. Attendant comes over and starts talking to me about the Stinger. I asked him if he’s seen other Stingers filling up. He said he has seen “thousands” of cars come thru but my Stinger was the first one!

That was me, and she was very nice. I'd actually just confirmed that my lease buyout was 100% complete. :D It only took 15 weeks! o_O
 
I haven't seen one around town ever. Bought my GT1 on Monday, and on Tuesday I saw a blue GT2, and yesterday pulled behind a black GT2. LOL...
 
I've had my GT1 since March 26th. I've only positively IDed another Stinger on the road once, the first week I had my car, We were both doing left hand turns, and I recognized the air channeling brake cooling vanes in front first, then the side vents. It was deepening evening and I didn't catch the color. Just before I got this car I thought I saw another Stinger on my way to do a test drive of one, but I wasn't absolutely certain. The guy who runs the Magic Clean car detailing shop says he has not seen another Stinger yet, only mine. I live in Salt Lake City.

Seen several down in San Diego recently. A grey GT, another micro blue GT and the one "closest" to me is a white GT2 I see parked in the parking lot of PwC in Sorrento Valley.

Saw a black 2.0 at the movie theater last week.... but nothing on the road.... I love this sh##
 
in the several months the mrs and i have had the pleasure of owning our stinger, we have seen a total of 3 stingers, which i have posted about near the beginning of this post. this post is to say that i find it odd that i have seen at least 2 dozen alfa giulias, both the base and the quatrofoglio, maseratis, porsches, bmw's, audis. i know we are out there in the south florida region. maybe, as has been posted here, the mrs and i should buy an optima or a sorrento. those seem to attract the stingers.

The story's pretty much the same here in Los Angeles County, although I have to admit I'm not on the road every day. I was shocked at how many Ghiblis and Panameras I was seeing until I woke up and realized they've been for sale so much longer, so it only makes sense. But I've seen as many Giulias as Stingers on the streets, which makes no sense at all to me, considering how much time they reportedly spend in the maintenance bay, not on the road. But maybe a good thing I don't see many Stingers, since when I do, I get so excited I nearly cause an accident.
