The increase in weight is why there have also been to increases in HP it is intended to counter that weight. I know that many forum members are the exception but the number of car buyers that are worried about weight is probably well under 1%. There is no shortage of lighter cars if you have the money to pay for them. Complaining that they are heavier is just pissing into the wind.

Let me ask you this: what's your take on the Alpine A110 and what they've been able to accomplish with that vehicle?
