When the mags tested the 2013 Gen V they complained about the unsorted suspension--too stiff in the rear, etc.

Has this been addressed in the 2014 SRT and GTS variants? I understand that the TA has other suspension changes.

Thanks!

Well it helps when they don't send misaligned test cars to major magazine reviews...

I was more referring to spring rates, etc.

Much of the comments about the first cars were as said the alignments and not the rate choices, as far as I can tell parts wise nothing was changed.

My '13 can get a little bouncy on some highways, it feels just like what my friends '06 feels like on the highway. No idea on the '14s though.

This is the problem when folks believe what they read in magazines. Remember, those early cars were pre-production cars. When they tested production 2013's with the first pre-production TA, they were sorted and Randy had times that were all very close. People forget that, but on the same day as the TA drive, he also drove a GTS with track pack and the times were extremely close.
