Still a roomored weight drop.. . boo! copy and paste information.

I hate quoting Wiki but

05-09
Curb weight V6 coupe MT/AT:
3,350 lb (1,520 kg)/3,420 lb (1,551 kg)
V6 convertible MT/AT:
3,475 lb (1,576 kg)/3,555 lb (1,613 kg)
V8 coupe MT/AT:
3,480 lb (1,579 kg)/3,525 lb (1,599 kg)

09-13
Curb weight V6 coupe MT/AT:
3,401 lb (1,543 kg)/3,454 lb (1,567 kg)
V8 GT coupe MT/AT:
3,533 lb (1,603 kg)/3,575 lb (1,622 kg)

Boss 302 in at 3,631- it has BBK and big wheels(basically what the new GT will have) and extra trans and diff coolers which the new GT may not have.

I think all of those are a tad light in respect to fully loaded versions but anyhow.

If they clip 200lbs off of 3,600lbs, that's cool. All they'd be doing is getting a little under the 05-09 car. 4pot turbo could be ~3200lbs. Not too shabby.

I remember those being cheaper when I was looking over a year ago.. .Maybe they got FIA approval after I looked. I tried fitting into their "normal" sized seat and it was tiny. Those slots are super small too which wont be ideal for many people and obtaining proper harness angles. Vivid had some at their place when I ordered my Recaro Profi and Profi XL from them. I wish I still had the Profi XL now that I have my M3. It would have been perfect. I'm okay with the SParco EVOL/II I have now.
