425 hp isn't going to feel fast with over 2.5 tons on top of it.

GTO was more fun.
Are you serious? What you saw was likely the gross vehicle weight. The 5100 pounds is how much the car would weigh with its maximum specified payload of oh lets say 4 200 pound people and their luggage.

The car's curb (unladen, but full of fluids etc) weight is 4100 pounds.
Modern crossovers don't even weigh as much as you thought the Charger did.
