I heard that Porsche might be planning for a baby-panamera so if that comes to market then it might just be within reach of those shopping for a higher trim Stinger.
I have not had that experience at all with mine, it only goes to fwd when cruising. As soon as you hit the gas all 4 wheels are pulling.Heard the new Fusion Sport feels like a front wheel drive car unless you put it in sport mode, which means some torque steer if you step on it from low speeds. I've one as a rental before and it was okay I suppose. can't comment on the other ones from an experience standpoint.
Sadly that's the only way they can test a product idea much like what RAM did to the Rebel, it was more of an upfitting than a new model. Before people figured that out they were bench marking it against the Raptor, turns out its not even on the Raptors Radar :grinI have not had that experience at all with mine, it only goes to fwd when cruising.

It was a really good idea but this is a parts bin car and it shows in everything from the bug ridden electronics to defective engine components. Waiting for a buyback from ford on mine and then moving on to the Stinger...
Now you're starting down a road littered with land mines. I started this thread to discuss competition that includes the one feature that I desire in the Stinger, a lift back. If you want to discuss other vehicles, such as the Alfa Romeo, Bimmers or Mercs, then fine, but it does open a can of worms.So I'm a little disillusioned by some of the option/trim limitations with the Stinger, and the total lack of availability of the color combinations I want (blue on red).
I've been looking again at the vehicles I was considering when I found out the Stinger was coming earlier this year. The M3, M4 or AMG C43. There are others I had not looked at - the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio, for example. Yes, it's significantly more expensive than a loaded GT2, but it also has 505bhp.
So I'm really interested in discussing competitive alternatives to the Stinger..
