In GTA 1, the Stinger based on the 1968-1972 [[Wikipedia:Chevrolet Corvette C3|Chevrolet Corvette]] (the name is a reference to the Corvette Stingray). In GTA 2 it's based on the [[wp:Chevrolet Corvette C2|1963 Corvette]] Split-Window. It can only be found in the Industrial District of [[Anywhere City]], and gives the [[ElectroFingers]] power-up when crushed. Both iterations of the Stinger handle well, respond suitably, and stick to the road. The car is therefore almost always a decent choice should you be able to find one. | In GTA 1, the Stinger based on the 1968-1972 [[Wikipedia:Chevrolet Corvette C3|Chevrolet Corvette]] (the name is a reference to the Corvette Stingray).
