How many people here have left their car all stock?
 
Your first stinger?

The 2.0L Premium is bone stock. The 3.3L GT1 has Eibach sways and aftermarket wheels. That's it. I presume that your question is in regards to drivetrain mods?

My only mod is a catback exhaust, and some aftermarket mudflaps if you want to count those.

I may eventually do sway bars but otherwise don't have any other mod plans. Want to keep my warranty and frankly I don't want/need any more power out of the car. It already does illegal speeds in what feels like an instant. More power would just be a waste for me.
 
The My23 Stinger GT has a 7 year unlimited km warranty in Australia so it will stay as it is driven from the showroom and it will be sold as a new car whenever I decide to. Keeping them standard gives a trouble free life. Keeping them standard keeps them entirely within warranty. Keeping them standard maximises their value.

No problem with those modifying the crap out of them but you lose all of the above. I have a saying. The money you spend modifying it is the money you lose selling it.

This is exactly my feelings as well. I don’t go to track or race the car.
 
only "mod" is BMS intakes and stock BOV 3D-printed trumpets (i think i was bored one day LOL).

as i get older, i've been modding cars less and less ... working from home, i don't really need more than stock 368hp to get to the grocery store, so i kinda stopped wasting money on stuff i don't need.

the Stinger got mostly "interior mods" - wireless AA, powered sub, Tuxmats, dashcam, boost/multi-gauge.
 
2020 stinger gt, 99% stock only one size wider tires all around... lol.
 
2022 GT1 3.3L, bone stock, lifetime warranty from the dealer I bought it from. I think it's a superb car with few areas upon which to improve.

Brother in the garage is a 2023 Cadillac CTV-4 Blackwing. Has the Stinger strong points in spades. Going out into the garage makes me smile!! Don

Mine is "basically" stock. Check out my mods, only appearance stuff besides aem intakes and 235s in the front outta necessity because I blew out a front tire and they didn't have the 225 in stock.

Wanna do Eibach sway bars and mbrp exhaust but I'll probably leave it alone until the warranty is done, then I'll jb4 it. Main reasoning is I don't want any hassle if I have to do warranty work and also, everything costs an arm and a leg for my gen 2 Lightning. Hard to get the Mrs on board with spending all the money on the Stinger when the Lightning needs a bunch of stuff.

I'm very content with stock performance. Its plenty quick.

I definitely think the handling needs improvement, even on a stock car. If you drive a little spicy once and awhile I heard the sway bars make a huge difference. Which is why I wanna get them.
 
No mods yet, although I plan to install an oil drain bolt access panel and Fumoto valve with my first oil change.
