Thread bump instead of starting a new one. Honestly I didn't take my time car shopping but the Stinger will do for now. I rushed without driving anything else and was looking for a car with power that didn't break the bank. I didn't test drive a Mustang or Camaro, which now I regret. But that is my fault. I was simply looking for the fastest car under 50K, which was my budget. I don't need a backseat as it's just me and my wife in our fifties with no kids. I wanted close to 400 hp or more in a car than handled better than my modified Ford Edge Sport. It was fast but wasn't exciting to look at. lol. I had a Camaro Z28 and Firebird Formula in my twenties and wanted that fun again. The Stinger is fun, but I test drove a Mustang GT premium recently. Wow. That exhaust is intoxicating. I didn't get a chance to get on it. It felt smaller than my Stinger. I don't track race or anything. Just want a fast car around town at stoplights really. I drive 60 miles each way for work so originally I discounted the Mustang and Camaro because I was afraid of killing myself in the winter. Never easy choosing a car. If money was no object I would just get a hellcat and have a winter car. But I can only afford and have room for only one car.
I just have a jb4 on my Stinger. I swore I would never modify another vehicle after spending 25K on my Ford Edge Sport after blowing the engine. I spent as much modifying it as I did on the vehicle used. I am a moron I suppose. I could never get the Ford Edge Sport to run correctly with the modified turbos. I had them custom built by Comp Turbo Technology in CA. At the time I just wanted to be in the 12's in the 1/4 mile and under 5 seconds 0-60. Which I did, but I lived with misfires daily and just finally said enough. Nobody could tune it correctly. I had it remote tuned by ZFG racing and dyno tuned at National Speed in VA. But they couldn't tell me why it misfired. All they told me was they could turn back the boost. But then it wasn't fun like that. But here I go again.
