[QUOTE="My94GT, post: 16108989, member: 57447"] Maybe just maybe dodge was accounting for conservative tunes with their power figures so they could safely warranty the car. What manufacturer doesn’t do that? If that weren’t the case we wouldn’t see people immediately bragging about a new tune or pulley swap making more power. As far as the weight, and cornering, that doesn’t seem to have been their goal with the car at this time frame and it has yet to impact the sales or their fan base. Now moving forward with the 2020 revamp it has already been stated that hybrid tech will be utilized as well as a smaller cube motor, and newer tech to lighten the car along with a new chassis. Are they behind the times a bit on it, sure, but they also kept pumping out fun cars for their fan base. Remember it’s relatively a small niche of people like yourself and others here on forums that are drilling down further into what we expect out of sports car offerings. The majority of buyers are just looking for something to have fun and brag about numbers, they are lucky to hit a drag strip ever and next to none will hit a road course let alone much sprinted back road driving.
