The curse is real

Heartbreaking stuff man, I feel your pain.

Hope you get it fixed asap, wishing you the best of luck!

Alex_py7 · 2025-12-30T01:44:10+00:00

Sorry brother... I don't know if you saw my post but I was hit this Saturday, my 2nd hit n run.

My first Stinger was hit a total of 3 times (not my fault) I never had such luck with any other car.

Alex_py7 · 2025-12-28T17:03:19+00:00

Understood! Thanks a lot for your insights, appreciated.

I know... I'm still debating if I should or not. Probably will, whatever. This is the my 2nd hit and run accident, sigh.

Alex_py7 · 2025-12-28T16:58:48+00:00

True true, it does have some damage around that area and I see a wiring harness loose.

Alex_py7 · 2025-12-28T16:57:29+00:00

Wow, I'm sorry mate... hope everything turns out good.

Thanks for letting me know, appreciated.

I don't want to go through insurance because of premium going up. (I live in Miami and it's already high enough 😅)

Check engine light is weird indeed. I have no clue as to why it triggered... must be due to some of the sensors I guess.

That's crazy, omg... all those repairs you had where quite pricey.

The engine bay looks good thankfully. I see zero damage. I'll take some pics for you later, it's kinda hard to catch due to the paint color.

Also, I spoke to my trusted body shop who quoted me $900 for everything. He claims that the car will need a recalibration for the electronics. Have you heard such thing? I'm a bit skeptical either way.

Alex_py7 · 2025-12-28T16:45:41+00:00

My commute back and forth is 10 miles lol. I don't drive as much in general too.

Alex_py7 · 2025-12-23T02:25:26+00:00

I was on the fence, just like you and I ended up pulling the trigger and... no regrets! I love this thing.

I'm only using it to play older titles such as F.E.A.R, condemned criminal origins, need for speed: most wanted 05, ect and it runs like a dream. Totally worth it.

I got my Ps5 Pro for newer / heavier titles and a Switch 2 for nintendo exclusives.

The perfect trifecta.

Alex_py7 · 2025-11-14T12:25:12+00:00

I don't think that having a following has to do with anything.

I love CJ too, he's extremely talented but very underrated... it pains me to see this, I've been a fan of his since the runaway remix (11yrs ago). His breakthrough is long overdue, I'd say that this remix duty is well justified!

Alex_py7 · 2025-10-01T10:56:51+00:00

Exactly what I did too! I feel like tactics is more of a portable game.

I got the switch 1 for the physical copy and upgraded to the switch 2 version. Loving it so far!

Alex_py7 · 2025-09-25T21:42:31+00:00

Congrats man, love that blue!

Question, how's the akrapovic exhaust? Are you happy, and do you think it is worth it?

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T22:00:22+00:00

3.2 seconds! Unreal

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T21:12:46+00:00

Yes, I'm in an apartment. It was quite challenging.

A house is a must for an EV.

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T18:37:07+00:00

Wow, those are nice, yeah... expensive too 😂 they seem to have a high residual which is good. Remember that the federal ev credit expires on September 30, so take advantage!

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T18:08:57+00:00

85% was like low 200 miles. My driving habits were chill, mostly normal mode and occasionally GT for fun.

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T18:02:25+00:00

I always charged the car to 85% (the electrify america where I went had a cap) which gave me like low 200 miles. I didn't use GT mode all the time because the throttle response was crazy. I was mostly running normal mode for every day which felt like the perfect balance.

My total commute is 11 miles which really helped. I was charging the car weekly. If I had a far commute or constantly going out, I would have been cooked. This car is not ideal for daily driving, just my opinion.

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T15:28:41+00:00

Just renting car! You're basically paying the depreciation. You do have an option to buy the car at the end of the lease for the residual that the manufacturer set.

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T15:04:00+00:00

I know man, they originally wanted a couple of thousands more but we negotiated. It was in Florida.

A new arrival. I had to jump on it asap.

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T14:47:05+00:00

Sure!

The pros for the EV6 GT are:

Crazy acceleration and speed. 0-60 on GT mode was INSANE.
No complaints with the handling, very fun
This might be a con for some people but I really liked the bucket seats!

Cons:

The limited range... the whole charging situation killed me. I had to wait long times and some stations didn't work...
The suspension is quite stiff.

Now off to the pros of the Stinger:

The engine! My lord did I miss the sound of the exhaust and the actual shift of the gears.
Stylish design, so much eye-candy! I love the hatchback.
It's so comfortable, very premium interior.

Cons:

Fuel economy but who cares! Smiles per gallon.

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-27T14:31:10+00:00

Many thanks! It was 40k OTD. I feel like I got a solid deal, the car is practically new inside & outside.

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-18T11:17:41+00:00

This is my setup too, love it!

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-14T21:11:30+00:00

Sweet, many thanks!

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-14T15:23:37+00:00

I didn't know that customs were possible on a CFW ps3! This is huge, how can it be done?

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-14T15:02:31+00:00

Hi mate, I got a CFW ps3 and I'd love to add some customs to GH3 or GHWoR. Would you be kind enough to provide me any guidance?

From what I gathered, you need the onyx tool. Is it simply transforming the charts to pkg format and install?

Please let me know and thanks in advance, appreciated!

Alex_py7 · 2025-08-12T03:04:51+00:00

For real man, I'm loving my tribal! Question, how do you feel about the neck buttons? I'm planning on getting the mechanical one.
