Re: What's the weight differences between Vette models? I would go to www.chevrolet.com and look under specs for the year that you are interested in. If its not there try www.caranddriver.com Between the those two sites you should find what you are looking for. However, I think that if you have a chance to get a Z06 and don't that you will regret it. Personally I'll be wainting for the C6 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Re: What's the weight differences between Vette models? The coupe (targa) and convertible are very close in weight (within 10 pounds of each (used to be one pound different) other depending on options, only 1 pound apart when the similarly equipment.
The hardtop LS1s ('99 and '00) weighed around 70 pounds less with the Z06 slightly lighter than that even.

Re: What's the weight differences between Vette models? Just to note, I weighed my coupe at 3090lbs with very little gas. This was with nitto drag radials on the back (17x8.5 97-99 style wheels) and stock runflats on the front.
Thats before I swapped out the stock manifolds and cats for FLP's.
