I'd guess that is just a marketing ploy knowing full well (deliberately?) the car is lacking the required safety equipment for the performance capability.
Optional seat choice for a dollar??. Does that also include or drop the required airbags, sensors and belts? Would Haggerty insure a car where the passenger has no required protection? Still attempting to figure out how an F/SA 2016 Challenger is 1,000 lbs less than the one I rented. Do rental cars come with heavy rust proofing?
Just like Cadillac Dodge has come to realize rich folks, and there is a lot more now, want fast cars and are willing to pay. Seems no one wants a Chrysler 200 or a Dodge Dart. (Except those forced into one like Alan Johnson, Deric Kramer, and Alan Prusiensky:-) I remember my 65 year old grandpa, his casual attire was dress shoes, dress pants, dago tee and a cigar to go along with his big, slow, boat of a Caddy he purchased after retirement. Go to a cruise night now and it is loaded with 75 year old guys in gym shoes, cargo or jean shorts, tee shirts and $75,000 plus fast cars. Sure Dodge will sell them all with the right colors.
