Question Can anyone guess...

how much our cars really weigh? I just got back from a certified CAT scale and was amazed at how light our cars really are. Everyone ready?
























































2364! That's what my car weighed!!!! Rediculous, huh?

Not bad. What do you have done to your car and how much gas did it have?

It was everything that came with it and it had a full tank. I took everything that wasn't in the car when I bough it out. I needed to get an empty weight of my car and then a full one. I get paid for how much weight I take with me when I move (military).

I took both my amps out, everything from the glove box was pulled, all my cds, my subs, amp power wires and distro box, even my sunglasses. I wanted my car as light as possible.

I get paid per weight. Every pound I can add to the car is about 3 dollars I get back at the end. So, my sunglasses are about 1.5 dollars. It will buy me a Coke on the way, brah!

How much does the factory weigh our cars as. Also whats up w/ the sticker on the drives side door jam? It says GVRW 3505lbs , I know that can't be the weight and even if that had our max. load capacity (850lbs) that still would be heavier than most members on here have said.

LX 5spd coupe has curb weight of 2465. http://www.clubcivic.com/board/specs.php

The sticker on your door stands for Gross Vehcile Rated Weight. It includes the total curb weight and max load.
