LS1 weight differences
LS1 weight differences How much heavier is a TA Hawk than a SS ?
.....both having leather
I see the added weight on the TA being t-tops, side skirts, front and rear bumpers and head lights / inside there are the additional speakers and the sharper (but heavier) interior pieces........but how much does that translate to in weight ?
I ask as I am strongly considering getting back into one or the other for autocross.

Each car is different, my Trans Am is 3520, my friends is 3300, and my friends SS was 3750 and another SS was 3400... both slp SS's but they all can come with all those options like T-tops... the lightest cars will be the ones with the least options like a z28 or a formula hard top, manual windows and everything, i'd say the average is around 3500-3600
I don't see a trans am weighing 3300. My hardtop SS weighed 3430 w/1/4 tank. Title says 3382 but that should be w/o fluids. My friends firehawk formula weighed 3450-3480 hardtop also. The only real options that add weight are, leather(mine has firehawk did'nt) , T tops, cd changers, 17" wheels/tires, lumbar/power seats, transam has more speakers and a big heavy wing and flip up lights. Camaro more aerodynamic. No real difference in power vs manuel windows but slight edge going to power.
