My question is, how are they going to drop that weight?

A good questions considering they're adding in an IRS as well.

Not the 10% more expensive part!
I do like the prospect of a smaller car though. If I wanted a boat I'd have a Challenger.

Car will be more expensive as they get better. This isn't 1960 anymore...

i havent even seen it yet but based on whats being said (irs, narrower body, shorter wheelbase, last v8) i want one. im really liking the narrower body bit since getting in and out of my driveway between the two houses is an ass puckering experience. even with agent 47 mirrors

I know a few people working on the S550 project (no I don't have pictures) and I have been under the new chassis. I've picked up a few snipits of information.
The wheelbase/track width are almost identical.
The front/rear overhangs are a little shorter.
The car this is going to be 400# lighter will be what SVT is releasing, or one of the ones they are releasing. I heard it is with the use of copious amounts of carbon fiber. It will not be inexpensive.

My question is where is that width coming from.
Center console? Already pretty narrow.
Seats? Unlikely as they're barely big enough for a lot of customers.
Doors? The most probable in my book. They're fairly thick now. That probably means no more 8" subs in the door however.

Oh yeah, word is that one or both of the SVT cars will have 10.5" wide front wheels and 13" wide rears. They are going to have some serious rubber on them!
I highly doubt it will be narrower than the S197. I actually thought it looked wider when I was under it.

That's one hell of an enema.
Supposed to be more New Edge - like in proportions.
