It's going to be highly dependent on options. The 675LT I had weighed 3075 wet. I expect my GT as ordered to be 32XX.

Based on the figures provided so far, it seems like most cars are going to weigh in closer to 3400 with fuel.

I would repeat my exact same wording.

That sounds like a hint.

Why would you say that MTV8?

The published dry weight is 3054 for the Competition Series. Unofficial wet weight is 3173 without fuel and 3266 when full. Competition Series weight savings difference of 117 for total of 3383 although that will vary depending on options.

Damn,

A new MX5 Miata weighs 2330 with all fluids, FRS about 2700. I know the powertrain is heavier but the car has so much carbon fiber I had hoped for 2800 wet.
I guess it must be the steel roll structure, DCT, Turbo's / inter coolers, and hydraulic systems.
