I don't really care for his channel, just an example of what's out there. Ratti's has a review up as well.

Not a big Ratti fan unless I want to know how much candy my Stinger can hold

^^Lol... Ratti is almost as annoying as the kid above. He can take those twinkies and shove 'em where the sun don't shine. That's the problem with these some of these sponsored reviews. Reviewers feel if they leave bad review there won't be future reviews.
Redline isn't bad. He's hard up on sunroofs and annoying exhausts. Alex on auto's seems most mature and objective IMO.

IMHO all of them suck in some way, DeMuro, Fastlane, Motorweek... none of them are likeable. That's why I don't watch any of them casually, just stick to Stinger reviews (I caved and watched Manuro's Rivian review the other day). Savagegeese might be the only one I can 'tolerate' on a regular anymore? And mostly because they're the opposite of what you say - they seem to enjoy going out of their way to trash a car. lol

Have never been subscribed, but they're okay. They're often more geared toward being entertainment than informative.

He's reviewed the GT a few times. I think his review was one of the first I saw that sparked my interest in the car. I doubt he'll find much to get excited about in the 2022 model, but it's a formula that works for the car so that's the takeaway from most reviewers -- don't fix what isn't broken, and update some of the tech.

Yup, watched Redline's review last night and it was exactly as I said it would be. lol
I like the look for the new 10" 'wide' screen infotainment. The rear lights don't make a difference to me (you'll get tired of me saying "I don't have to look at the back of my car"). The exhaust tips are still proportionally too big. Luke warm on the new 19" rims, they're fine just maybe too busy. I like what he said about the prior rims being 'cleaner'. Agree with that. Exhaust sounds beefier, I guess it's fine but I'm an eventual EV owner so I don't buy the car for exhaust note.

^^It would be nice if the went away from the 90deg rotated cell phone displays - which are too wide and not tall enough. Who wants a 2.66 AR display in their car.

To do that they are going to need to move the screen lower into the dash (some manufacturers are doing this, like some of the newer Fords). I prefer portrait as well (I hardly use/touch mine so don't really care at the moment). If I used it for navigation I'd want a more square or 4:3 screen.
It's probably cheaper to slap the screen on top of the dash than to fully integrate it, which is why we were seeing this on cheaper manufacturer's cars. They'd have to rework the air vents on the Stinger to do this. They won't be doing that anytime soon, or likely ever since this is probably it for the vehicle.
