According to the door sticker minus person body weight, my car weighs in as 3,499lbs. My car is also pretty loaded so it could weigh less if you have less options.

According to that chart my 95' Z weighs in at 3563.84. That includes all options and T-tops with an auto. Doesn't include the leather and I'm sure that has some weight to it. This is without me in it. I'm curious what mine really weighs now.

Bone stock, full tank, full fluids: 3510 without me in it. I had it weighed. Mine's a loaded Z-28 with T-tops and no traction control.

The scales were finally free at work and I thought I'd contribute to this thread. My 94 z-28 1LE = 3,445 lbs
WITHOUT driver
WITH full tank of gas. Station 1/2 mile down the road- topped it completely full
WITH full stereo system (2 amps and subs)
If I'm right, does a gallon of fuel = roughly 8.5 lbs?

Just in case anyone was interested.

Water weighs 8.35#/Gallon. Fuel at typical pump gas specific gravity (0.72) is roughly 6#/Gallon.
