  1. You win. No one really wins, but if it makes you feel any better, after your victory you can tell all your friends I was totally trying, and that you're positive it was a GT model.
  2. I'm not worth your gas. You may think I'm scanning mirrors for my next victim, but the truth is I'm either asking my wife if we need anything from the store or listening to NPR. If I'm tuned into Lithium instead, it may take me a minute to realize you're trying provoke me.
  3. I'm flattered that you think my car is worth revving on. In most cases, I like your car too (Q60, Camaro SS, m240i, Boxster S, Challenger SRT...pretty sure I forgot some). EOS wasn't my taste though.
  4. Please drive safely.
 
WOW, I must be the exception to the rule.....(nice way to say mental)....I'm the guy revving his 2.0t,lmao!!
 
LOL! Whenever folks see the car, they seem to want to race it. In the first week I had my car, I'm stopped at a light, dude in an M3 or probably M4 (it was a coupe) pulls up beside me. I notice he's fiddling in the car, when the light changes and I move off, he is right next to me, engine at a high rpm, I've already changed about 3 gears at this point as I'm in ECO mode. He revs a little, get a head of me and backs off until he's lined up with me. I'm thinking, seriously, this guy want to race in the early am, where cops are out at the end of the month? Have at it bro! He realizes I'm not going for it and screams off. Got the car for my enjoyment, not to be racing every person that comes up looking to challenge it.

I've had a few people rev at me, but for the most part I don't notice it. I'm just enjoying the drive.
 
I wish I could do that,''enjoy the drive'' .Ya see I drive for a living....a semi truck ,twin trailers to be exact. And the one thing , the ONE thing that kills a good night on the road........cars to be more specific, people . So when I'm in my car, at one tome, souped up hemi Ram, I always floored it at the light...didn't matter if they chased or not , I was getting in front....didn't matter if they raced, I was getting in front.....now with the 2.0t I better check the competitipn first,lol
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
I had to explain to my 11 year old daughter the psychology of why drivers in cars with aftermarket exhausts seems to always feel the need to loudly rev their engines next to my 2.0 Stinger as opposed to when we're in my wife's car or my previous cars. It used to startle her but I think she is used to it by now. I agree it's getting a little old and annoying.
