CURB WEIGHT OF A 01Z06 2880lbs!?!?! Hi. A good friend on mine had a 01 Z06.... he said it weighed 2880 from the factory... like... nothing taken out... nothing changed. BONE STOCK weighed 2880.... I dunno if he had some kind of experimental aluminum magnesium frame... or something like that... but he said he tripped out and took it to 3 different scales and it was +/- 40 lbs on all 3 scales...
Reason i ask... Is im about to finally get a career rolling... and im looking to upgrade into a C5z06 *atleast* and if this was just some fluke.. then im going to obviously aim at newer years...
Any help to this?

Doubtful. My 02Z was 3130 raceweight with my dragpack. I weigh 130lbs. So 3000lbs right on. That is with longtubes and a lightweight battery also. Less then a 1/4 tank of gas.

Sorry, but he's wrong. That may be the dry weight, but even then I'd doubt it.
I weighed my 02 Z and it was 3080 with HREs and a 1/2 tank of gas.
The 01 Z with 1/2 tank should weight about the same if not a little more. The changes made to the 02 over the 01 that effected the weight of the car were slightly lighter wheels and the addition of the HUD. I can't imagine the 01 weighing less than 3000Lbs straight from the factory. I'm sure GM would have made a big deal about that. LOL

My 01Z with speedlines, B&B dual tip bullets, Washer tank delete, Kooks 1 7/8 headers, Michellin PS2's, 3" Off road Xpipe, and 1/2 tank of fuel without a driver tipped in at 2980lbs. (ECS trans/diff brace installed)
