I was commenting on the car being just a bit older than me (born in '68) which makes me feel better. Mofo hot chicken was gooooood man! Scott

When I first got the car my daughter was excited to race a little Honda at the light next to us. I reminded her that a stock Civic would smoke us. Weighed my car when we were setting up the suspension. I figured it would be 4000 lb + but weighed in at 3450 complete with a 30 gal gas tank. Scott

I redid the suspension, but to pump up the volume and upgrade the brakes, it just wasn't worth it. My 525i was spectacular compared to the Vette, so why even bother? Your car, on the other hand, is worth it. |

Empty tank she'd be about 3250.
3450 complete with a full tank of gas (30 gals ~200 lbs) C7 Z06 weighs in at 34-3600 depending on options. Scott https://media.chevrolet.com/media/us...2016.tab1.html
