That's pretty much my 2002 Z28. It only has 2 options: Eagle GSC tires and rear defrost. It weighed 3400 lbs with 3/4 tank of gas on those little scales the road racers use. By that I mean the ones where you put a small scale under each tire all at the same time so you can make adjustments for road racing.

My '00 Z28 has only rear defrost, power driver's seat, asr, and 3.23's (not sure if that was one of the options or not). Anyway, it weighed in at exactly 3,500lbs with just over 3/4 tank of gas and a lot of odds and ends in it, including a full tank of nitrous.

I figured those little scales would be accurate because of what they are used for but you never really know. You take my 3400 lb - 10 gal of gas (10 gal * 8 lb/gal) = 3320 lb or around 3300 lbs totally empty.

I took my car out to the track and this time decided to keep all interior peices in and even the spare tire was in it, only thing I kept off was the washer fluid bottle, and the rear convo pros, and the scale at HRP said 3368 with 1/4 tank of gas and ME in it. These cars are light, main reason I bought this one. I would guess though off the lot it would be closer to 3400 for a stripper car.

I`ve been wondering myself. Especially since I ripped out the A/C, emmissions equipment, sway bar, washer fluid res., back seat, etc, etc. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Check my weight in the sig. The car has rear defroster and cd player as the only options. That weight was with 1/4 tank of gas, no spare or jack, but with 17x11's on the rear and 17x9's on the front.
