Weight

I cant be the only one who has had trouble locating an accurate stock weight for our cars. i understand there is some variance in weight based on vehicle options but i was wondering what do you guys have stock, what are you at now? driver or no driver?
I have some weight trimmings, no axle nvh weights, headers, orx pipe, spare tire well is empty ect however i have some heavy ass 18s, shaker 500 and a 3/4 tank when i weighed. my car comes to 3650 with me in it.

here is what i got without driver

Seems right. Thats all you need to know. Who cares what stock is/was? You know what it weighs now.

A stock '05-'09 GT Deluxe Coupe with TR3650 comes in at 3488lb with a full tank of gas. The Premium is ~35lb heavier and further options such as a glass roof plus a Shaker 1000 sub will add even more weight.
Mine is slightly lighter than stock thanks to an aluminum driveshaft that shaves off almost 20lb.

well i care. i like to know what progress is made. where weight was added or cut. know where i stand so i can make changes down the road.

Unless you drive it on the truck scales, I would not trust Ford numbers. All 7 versions (including the hybrid) of my 2011 Fusion are listed as 3420 lbs by Ford... which is obviously bs. Fill the tank full, drive onto the scales, then subtract your body weight.

Scrapyard scale read 3550 for mine.
Too bad I dont recall which drivetrain or if that was with or without my weight taken out. lol, I just remember the 3550 part.

There used to be a detailed MVMS data sheet floating around but I can't find it any more.

But from a copy I did grab, here's what appears to be official data for the 2005. I have no idea how much weight may have been gained from one year to the next. I don't know what 'shipping mass' represents, but there is a note stating that it's either 129 or 131 lbs less than curb depending on which engine.

Glass Roof, Shaker 500 system and the stock wheels, tires and 3/4 of a tank was 3450lbs according to the track scale when my car was new.
