They're also usually over 3,000 lb loaded weight. For example, a 2010 Camaro SS is 426 hp (318 kW), but it has a curb weight of 3,860 lb, which will exceed 4,000 lb with a driver; thus, that's 3 ep. Going with lighter sports cars, the Lotus Elise SC is 218 HP (163 kW) on a weight of 1,987 lb; that's marginally over 3 ep as well. Can you give me an example of a 600 horsepower car with a curb weight of less than 4,300 lb, or 500 hp at less than 3,555 lb, or 400 hp at less than 2,810 lb? (in all cases, adding 170 lb to curb weight for a driver).
