Hi All,

New to the forum. Hoping to purchase my Stinger GT2 soon. I?m in New England and have been getting quotes in the $48,500 - $49,000 range.....but I?m working hard to get that!! I think that?s pretty good? Just can?t decide Between the red with black interior or the black with red interior? I want black on black but it doesn?t seem to be an option....

What?s the consensus here? HiChroma Red or Aurora Black? Thanks

Black w/red interior or you can get the best option, IMO, P2M w/red leather. Black will be hard to keep clean but we?re all enthusiasts here so that shouldn?t be a problem. Get what you like best and don?t look back.

Welcome aboard!!....I think the red will bring out the sexy lines of the Stinger than the black. Now the Black looks classier than the Red...Difficult choice. Let us know once you decide.

Casting my vote for Red but either one will bring lots of smiles.

$48,500 was for the showroom micro blue with gray interior. I was there haggling for a long while. Started out negotiating on a GT1 then got into the GT2 they had on the floor. It?s really nice I just really didn?t want the color combo. The blue and yellow stingers look great, it?s just too much for me to be my daily driver. Was able to get commit for $49k on the black or red. Add in the lease cash seems pretty good

$49k is much better than what I paid for my GT2.

I thought it was awesome deal but he was working hard trying to get me into the showroom model. I?m actually kind of kicking myself for not jumping at it. Im going away this weekend but heading back down next week to get the black/red or the red/Black....damn it I like them both! We?ll see how it goes when back in the lions den. Ha!

If you can't decide, have someone draw out a color from a hat. My last car was red and I felt it drew too much attention, decided to go black this time.

If you want an impartial comment, if you're going to use the car as a daily driver, you don't want black unless you plan to wash it every day. Clean blacks look great. Dirty blacks are totally unremarkable.

That?s what I was thinking but mldavis2 had a good point about the black not looking good when dirty. I?ll have to stay on top of that. How do you like the red interior?

Yea, I saw a black premium model on the lot that looked like hadn?t been washed in a week and it was pretty bad! My issue is I want the black interior and that?s not possible with most colors. At least not what?s available around me. Maybe will just go with the GT1??
