Default Please weigh your v6's and GTs

I'm curious about the weight of the S197s.. Model year, Options I'd also like to know.. and list mods that might add/subtract weight (and how much you think it lightend it by)

I've seen a range of 3350 to 3550lbs for the GT. I'll have to figure out someplace to weigh mine and post the results..

Your help in compiling some real world results would be greatly appreciated.

Riptide tried calling Ford and they wouldn't give him any weight figures.. Just told him he needs to go weigh it himself.

Being military myself and recently just moved to texas, I weighted mine a month ago and empty weight 3500 lbs. Mine is a 2005 GT prem, IUP, and stock for the most part with the axle back ex.

Hope this help..........

I weighed mine at the track last time I was there... 3700 lbs on the dot with me in it.
I'm 145ish lbs. I have every option including the Shaker 1000 and the heavier rims (I'm assuming they're heavier) and the spare was in the trunk. 1/4 tank of gas I believe.
