I think the Euro trash magazine writers are the reason everyone thinks that new pony/muscle cars need to handle like true sports cars or a BMW M3.
GM, Ford have proven there is a market for handling. ZL1, Boss 302 LS, Z/28, 1LE, etc. I bet Dodge would too if they built a road course focused car.

Nothing against the hellcat, but this isn't the 70's. Some want more, and some don't. But in todays real world people are buying road course focused cars too.
