I agree with you a base GT500 should be in the ZL1/Hellcat neighborhood. Still that 4,200+ weight bothers me. Weren't the last ones around 3,900 pounds?
I can see the GT500 coming in around 4050 if Ford made no attempt at lightening the car up and simply took a GT350 and beefed it up and added a blower, but 4225 seems absurd. Thats 435lbs heavier than a GT350.
