Default How much does a targa top coupe weigh?

with fuel would be good to know. I know there are some guys out there with the LPE Twins on their car and some people that have the ATI kit. Those are the 2 routes i would decide to go. Now, does those modifications and all necessary parts cuase an imbalance to the cars 50/50 ratio and how much would it weigh at that point.
I know these are some weird question but they have good reason to me. Thanks as always!! <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

I had less than 1/4 tank of gas when I weighed my coupe. 3190lbs.

Next time I'm at a track that seperates front/rear weights I'll write it down.

Targa top cars should weigh between 3250lbs and 3290lbs with a full tank of fuel without driver. And they don't have perfect 50/50 weight distributions, closer to 52/48. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" />

Does the weight of the runflats make a difference when changed out? Its hard to believe a vettes weight is so close to a stock Camaro(within 300lbs) I looked up the weight of a 99 SS and it was 3360.
