After two weeks of stinger ownership I decided this car wasn't for me: https://www.carmax.com/car/21495656

This one was! https://www.carfax.com/vehicle/KNAE...Qv23a9Siptq_i7jnZC0aAgR9EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

What was the deal breaker that made you pick the GT2?

We will have to go plural for that one

Paint blemishes on this car: littered with touch up marks
Warped rotors: Terrible vibration
Missing tons of features on the GT2 (mostly the ventilated seats and tan leather that i'm interested in.

Exactly my model aside from interior colour(jealous)

Don't be too jealous, one pair of jeans and the interior will match the exterior.

Lmao. Becareful OP

Long term wise, I would be pretty annoyed tbh, it does look good as youre riding and or parked as others admire.

Interesting swap. Understand the paint issues and features you may have wanted. Ventilated seats would be something I wouldn't mind on the hottest days here. The rest of the tech between base GT and GT2 is lost on me, in addition to being unwelcome complexity.

Anyway, are you aware of the brake pad issues causing warped-rotor-like symptoms? Just a head's up, in case the 'warped rotors' follows you to the replacement GT2. Here's the discussion for possible future reference. [tl;dr -- swapping the brake pads fixes the pulsing for most Stinger owners]

Hopefully you'll have a better experience with Stinger 2.0

Dont get me wrong current stinger is great but yeah I wanted a GT2 to begin with so a little extra a month is worth it. I tried to tell myself 4k more is too much for features I dont need but I regretted it.
