Nice, that is pretty cool you got to go do that. Did you shovel off all the **** from the animals that was on the scale??? So 3600, and it was all set up ready to go? Maybe that is about right. Cant wait for some other folks to chime in.

Mine was 3600 with me in it (190 lbs.) Don't remember how much gas was in the car. We have a truck scale at work, so I'm sure it's not dead nuts accurate. I may have to weigh it again once the weather gets nice with a 1/4 tank and without me in it and see where it's at.

The recycling depot I go to has a scale to measure how much stuff you bring in. It's pretty damn accurate as I preweighed some of the stuff prior to dumping to make sure I wasn't ripped off.
With me in the car, the weight came up to mid 3650 or so. Wasn't sure how much fuel or washer fluid I had. That was bone stock though.
I changed out to longtubes and true duals while doing the suspension which lightens up some parts and makes some others heavier. I'll go with the whole my car is 3700lbs though till I get a chance in the spring to weigh it again.

I think I was 3800 with me in it, full interior, whatever else I had in it including a full tank of gas. Can't remember exactly and I am 200lbs too. Say anybody know what a full tank of gas wieghs, I was thinking about this topic this morning actually and wondering what at a minimum a half a tank of gas les would weigh? I ma getting kinda of leary for my project coming up. full interiour WS6 with front mounted turbo, a2w intercooler, 4l80e, 6.0 iron block and 9'' moser 
I am thinking close to 4000 lbs 
I know I need to get the car on the diet if I am serious but I may run it as is this summer and than strip it down without making it ugly inside, LOL, when/if I cage it. Any takers or people here that have a combo close to mine with full interior? I think MightyMouse is at 3780 but he's got full tubular suspension and I am sure some weight savings as well. Might have to pm him 
BTW my current wieght stands with some suspension upgrades, bolt on's and full exhaust.

yea the car club here told me how to do it..... you just drive up to the dairy farm and the scale is right up in the back for the feed trucks to get weighed.
there was nothing in my car except for a bucket of car wash stuff.... maybe 15 pounds
its a fully loaded SS m6 with a FULL tank of gas(just filled it) i will weigh it again when its nice out.... and get the front/back weigh ratio
it was 3830 with me in it.... im about 195 pounds still need to check about all that cow **** on the scale... make sure its zeroed out next time
