Question weight for a 02 WS6?

I need to know the exact weight of a 2002 WS6 T/A? how much more did they weigh over the regular T/A and formula?

Everything I've ever seen points to essentially 3500lbs.

(I've seen the M6 WS6 listed between 3495 and 3500 - I've never looked for the auto)

Very dependant on options, but you can expect them to weigh more than the Formula (formula supposedly has a lighter hatch, along with the fact its more of a stripper).
The WS.6 has bigger/wider wheels, and beefier suspension to add to the weight, but the fiberglass hood supposedly weighs 10lbs lighter than the stock steel ones.

What options? There should be basically 2 weights, 1 with A4, 1 with M6. CD-Changers can't weigh enough to factor in, and everything else was crammed into the WS6.

True 'nuff, everything does add weight, but he did ask about the T/A WS6, which is a single option package that has absolutely everything, with only the CD changer and A4 vs M6 as the options, IIRC. Other than trannys, they should all weigh within a few pounds of one another (all A4s roughly the same, and all M6s roughly the same).

3465? That's lighter than I expected, and good news. Is that an M6 or an A4?

I have a heard two basic weight's in general? one was 3550 and the other was 3625 but I have a hard time believing those #'s? thats why I ask just to see if those were BS or true?

It is M6 without a spare or jack in it, and GMMG. Scales do vary a bit so I would guess that a loaded WS6 M6 Stock is around 3500 with little gas in it.

My '99 Formula WS6, M6, T-tops, with most power and convenience options and no mods weighed 3500 with a full tank of gas. With headers, and rear seat and AIR/EGR removed, it weighed 3460

FWIW, traction control was also an option.

my 99 was 3480 stock with half tank without anyone in the car, no spare or jack. So roughly 3500 lbs out of the box.
