Is anyone else concerned that the prototypes they used in the recent SCC and C&D tests were tuned more aggressively than what will come out of the factory?
That's got me a tad worried. I mean honestly, what would they have to gain by understating the power figures so much. They could only sell MORE cars. On the otherhand, they give these hypothetically "tuned" prototypes to SCC and C&D and the like, people see the numbers and will line up to buy the car. Odds are, since they were just tested, the mags won't test them again once they officially come off the assembly line (or anytime soon anyways) so they could detune them to better match the claimed specs and no one would be the wiser. Until of course they purchased the car.
All input welcome
