The excessive weight of modern muscle cars is partly safety, partly their ever increasing huge size to fit the average obese American in the cabin, and partly manufacturers building them out of cheap, heavy materials.

Everyone makes the argument that cheaper materials lead to cheaper prices... But I'm betting the new lighter aluminum F150 will only be a few thousand more than the outgoing model... Land Rover recently did the same thing with the Range Rover lineup... Dropping some 800lbs off the current generation, without increasing the price substantially versus the outgoing models.

Rovers saw roughly a $10k price increase for like models with the intro of the new aluminum bodies. Although driving a 2013 vs a 2012 Range Rover supercharged was night and day difference in performance with relatively no change in hp ratings. There's also the factor of body work. I longer work for rover but as of 3 months ago when I left we had to send all aluminum work to stockton, where the only certified aluminum body shop in the region is.
New 2015 aluminum-bodied F150 pricing announced. Price increase is minimal.

Resurrect this one. Now that some time has gone by the Hellcats are factory beasts. Still big but in a straight line the GT500, ZL1, and even neck and neck with the new Z06....(from a roll).

1/4's in the 10's too.

^ They are nice but people are paying way over MSRP for those things.

The hellcat is about $85,000 on ebay, I'm sorry that is just way to much for a Dodge.

You can't judge a car by that, just because few rich people bought a fast car doesn't mean they can drive it.
