Mine weighed 3030 on the scales at Silver Dollar Raceway with an 1/8 tank of fuel.

Most sites list C6 Vert at 3199 (base, which means no electric top). Add 15lbs for that option. Coupe is 3179.

Yup, found this online.

In an era in which most vehicles seem to grow ever more bulky, the sixth-generation Corvette achieves lower vehicle weight, even with the addition of numerous features new to the marque. The Convertible is no exception, with a base curb weight of 3,199 pounds (1,451 kg), 49 pounds (22 kg) less than the 2004 model. The manual top mechanism utilizes thin-wall castings for a weight savings of 8.6 pounds (3.9 kg.) The optional power top mechanism adds just 14 pounds (6.4 kg.) to the car’s weight.
