Ha! The speed limitation that is applied for a safety measure in accordance with US DOT regs has hurt the value of your overpriced piece of shit?

One more time and I’m done with you also. Tell me about the financial injury if you cannot exceed 150 mph again?

Also you are a good example, answer my fundamental simple depo questions as a typical Plaintiff. You can’t! That crap will not fly my friend.

Go to bed Cole. This guy has some good click bait set up.
What US DOT regulation mandates a speed limit of 150 mph? Diminished value is something used all the time in car accidents. Not sure why all the hostility, not answering your questions? Again, this isn't about me, it is about a class action lawsuit which may or may not be filed (IDK).

Who has good click bait? TK?

Prove financial harm? I lost $5k in a callout at a street race because I was lied to about the top speed of my 170. What more do you need sir 😉😂
Resale value, again, I think this if from TK's youtube vidoes, but the ADM dropped like a rock after it came out about the 150 speed limit (so did the auction prices).

So how many people actually will try or want to go 215 mph, 1%? 90% will sit or be driven very little

I am tried of doing your research. Have to go get paid for this shit. Dah! You can start at the NHTSA Website.

I can be contacted privately for my T&C’s along with a quote if you need more help. If someone can find a case like this, I will be glad to join the defense team.

Well I’ll take the first B5 Blue Demon 170 that won’t do 215 mph and I’ll pay 35k and forget about the lawsuit.

Maybe there is some confusion here, I am not asking for your help regarding an actual or potential lawsuit regarding claimed performance of a Demon170. I am aware of many cars from the factory that exceed 150 mph so I question your statement regarding some Federal organization limiting the speed of automobiles. Heck even a 2018 Demon with the non-crate PCM exceeded 150 mph (with the crate PCM installed, 213 mph based on youtube videos). I do believe it was limited to 162 mph due to the drag radials. Some factory cars exceed 200 mph today, right off the showroom floor.

I am a little surprised at your hostility in some of your responses, but it is what it is. Some of the emails from SRT regarding this subject I posted, were obtained from RacerX video regarding the subject (yes, I know, another youtuber).

Stay positive, as my grandmother used to say, "it will all work out in the wash".

What's wrong with the link? TK, Butter and OCMotivator seem to be on top of all things Demon170. .
That is a joke??

It depends on who you ask, many Dodge dealers are not happy with them, Butter is the one who broke the active serviceman story regarding his Demon170 order which cumulated with him receiving another Demon170 courtesy and Tim K. and picking the car up at Jay Leno's garage.

Probably regretting their 92 month $5k payment. The plaintiffs gets money, and the lawyers. Class action suits are garbage. You’ll have maybe 3 plaintiffs in this case. Everyone else will get $30, or a set of street tires, flash, and sign a waiver. I could see dodge offering that, maybe.

I wonder if the lawyers can be sued for the diminished value this b.s. is bringing to happy Demon 170 owners? Throw the worthless influencers & BAT Demon flipper peanut gallery in it also.

@DGatzby do you standby that statement from last night? If so, please provide clarification regarding whether the Demon170 is an "overpriced piece of shit" or is that on a case by case?

The diminished value argument is something that has been covered by the aforementioned youtubers, I have no idea what the lawsuit alleges (if there is one).

The YouTube Demon influencers should certainly be included in a diminished value lawsuit. They fuel the fire for views. Listening to potential Demon buyers at a large auction recently blew my mind how ill informed people are. Spewing sales figures like they were pork subsidies. Silly!

You want catch me saying a bad thing about RacerX, TK Garage, OcMotivator or Butter, they have helped so many Demon170 buyers and provide a lot of good information, imo. They are usually the first to report news regarding Stellantis.

I have nothing bad or good to say about these influencers. I take in the content as presented. Providing good info is a great thing. But what about the pure false & misleading content for the sole reason of generating clicks?

I am not aware of any false or misleading content from them, are you? If so, please provide an example.

And some lawyers wonder why they always rate less trustworthy than auto mechanics and politicians.

When some content can’t be backed with any credible facts or sources it makes you wonder. Probably to bait followers & get them to hinge on every word spoken. Stay tuned folks to the next episode blah blah blah…
