How much do our cars weigh?

I'm getting my gtech tomorrow. I have an auto EX and I want to know how much it weighs empty (meaning without me in it). I know the weights on the sticker on the door are full of people, so what is the weight empty?

I'm going to test my hp and 0-60 with the FIPK (my only performance mod right now; all the rest are suspension) and then make later tests with each new part I get.

So, what's the weight?

Thanks.

i looked at the sticker on the side of my door frame on the driver side and i remember it saying something like 3100lbs curb weight.

About, yeah. 2556 for EX coupes. Add 40lbs for autos. Any other model is a little bit less. If you want to find out, just go to Honda.com.

The best way to find out how much your car REALLY weighs is on a scale. Truck scales are a no-no because they're designed for vehicles the size of a truck! Go to a race track and do it.

Damn, somebody jacked your sticker and switched it with a DX Accord.

That's about the weight of an Acura NSX FYI.

Dude that curb weight thing is with 5 passengers, right?

I forgot to say I have a sedan. Hehe. Thanks for the weights. Maybe I'll just say that my car weighs 9000 lbs and then I'll get a huge hp rating

Haha, just kidding.

I'll post my results after I do it.

white2K2EX is a glorious beacon of light

A few weeks back, SilverDevil weighed his car (EX manual) with a full tank of gas and I believe it came out to be like 2354 or close to it.

Damn... that's the best thing I've heard about our cars since the release of the HP 4-in-1 header with high flow cat. A DX could probably manage somewhere in the 2200s.
