Wrong. Maybe at the crank the SC might boost the is up to 330 to 350, but at the wheel the highest dyno I've seen is 297 and thats from an IS owner with the SC. The other owners haven't really posted any numbers.

Those numbers I put down are dyno numbers. Power you actually have at the wheel.

The IS may have 306 at the crank but to the wheels on a stock car maybe 260 to 270, and thats only because all cars aren't created equal.

I don't get it - why are we comparing apples to oranges ? A dodge neon, puhleaze . . . You can't even buy a new neon if you wanted to, they were DC'd in 2005, even Daimler Chrysler gave up on the POS. I would be more concerned by a subie WRX or mitsu Evo since those are still selling and keep improving each year. Now if a Buick GN pulled up next to me . . .
