New stinger gt1 owner

[Marine1911]

Hey folks
Name is Tom, I was looking to get a new 2025 K5 GT, so I went to YouTube to look at videos and a stinger popped up as well, I saw they stopped making them in 2023, so I reached out to my best friend who is a car enthusiast, we grew up loving and owning American muscle cars but he switched to imports like 8 yrs ago, (less money spent for more power compared to American) he told me.
Anyhow he was the 1 who told me to get the TWINS !! Best Buy and fun I have had in a long time and I look forward to some moderate mods soon. Looking forward to reading up on what everyone is or has done to theirs
Take care folks

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. I'm glad you found us. Congratulations on your new Stinger! I'm glad you found it before purchasing the K5. Not that the K5 is bad - it's a nice car - but the Stinger is definitely a big jump up. Nice Monte Carlo! What have you got done do it? The hood looks great...

Thank you
I replaced the original 305 with a 350, and the exhaust replaced with flowmasters and the hood is airbrushed, unfortunately I no longer have her which is another reason I have the Stinger
She was totaled when a lady made an illegal u-turn in front of me like that trailer did to those people here in Florida. I had gotten a 2014 Camaro SS but man did it drink gas so now I have the Stinger and I’m much happier with her

Sorry to hear about that accident. I hope nobody was hurt. I can't believe how badly people can just make up their own rules when driving... Crazy that the Monte Carlo is gone because of that... Yes, the Camaro SS is quick - but you're right - lots of gas with that big engine. But I can't say I won't miss big V8s when there aren't many on the road anymore... In any event, the Stinger is a great car and I'm highly confident you'll be happy with it for a long time...

Welcome to the community!

Imports specifically KDM vehicles have come a long way!

The Stinger on its own is a blast but it can quickly become the car of dreams with just a few mods.

Feel free to reach out to us if you ever have any questions or if you would like a discount on anything at our shop!​

Well, if its a My23 Twin turbo V6 it is the last of the Stingers built and as a subsequent owner you are probably missing a list of its features. AWD was never sold here but these spec sheets show the full range of features for the My23 Models.
