Well your observations seem to fairly closely follow the original post. Again I am surprised about the braking comments. There have been a fair number of the vanilla versions put on the track and none of them ever made this point. Makes one wonder what the differences between the 2 are. Mine certainly squats and leans under hard breaking but it is well controlled as it does so. I never thought that my brakes were getting soft either. I wonder if this is just because I would enter most corners at a speed probably around 15-20% less than an SRT would. Mine is also primarily a "pretty" car but I would like to think that it does OK at the track.
