Here's what I don't get:
MS180 has 31.8cc engine, 2.0 horsepower, is 8.8 lbs and is $200.
MS210 has 35.2cc engine, also 2.0 hp, but a pound heavier (9.7) and $70 more. What are you getting for your seventy bucks? 2" longer bar?
Step up to the MS230, 40.2cc/2.5hp/10.1 lbs (not sure on the price)
Or the MS250, 45.4cc/3.0hp/10.1 lbs for only $50 more than the MS210.
Maybe that's why Stihl is coming out the MS211: same displacement as the MS210, 2.3 hp, and 9.5 lbs...?
In terms of $/hp:
MS180:99.5
MS210:117.0
MS250:110.0
Or hp/lb:
MS180:0.227
MS210:0.206
MS211:0.242
MS230:0.247
MS250:0.297
Or hp/cubic inch:
MS180:1.03
MS210:0.93
MS211:1.07
MS230:1.02
MS250:1.08
The hp figure for the 210 just seems low. Is it underrated?
