Default 05-06 Stang VS 07-09 Weight difference?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone know the exact weight difference between the 05-06 stang compared to the 07-09 stangs? I know that the 07+ stang have more steel to accomodate for the gt500 engine.

I think the only differences in weight are due to side airbags and extra junk like that. I dont think they touch the frame, shelby does that himself

08's and 09's have more sound deadening than 05-07's.

WTF are you talking about? Shelby does not touch the stock GT500's from the factory.
They only have his NAME on it. GT500's do not come from a shelby plant.

Ok that came out wrong I meant that they are modified by SVT and back by SHELBY. The KR is modified in vegas. Try not to be too much of an ***
