Weight of Stock Mark

RE: Weight of Stock Mark

it varies anywhere from 37xx to about 39xx (depending on model year and options) but that should give you a good estimate.
on a related side note 2nd gens (97-98) weigh a little more than first gen and the sun roof adds to the weight as well.
 
RE: Weight of Stock Mark

I think right now I have the bragging rights for heaviest Mark.

My 96 weighed in at 4,037lbs at emissions testing. That was with a completly stock car and about 1/2 tank of gas. Nothing in it except the spare tire.

For those that think the Gen Two is heavier that the Gen One, I submit this evidence.

RE: Weight of Stock Mark

it is quite odd indeed the 93 weighs in at 375X but ppl who weight their marks get really different numbers like Jay whose 96 was over 4000.
 
RE: Weight of Stock Mark

the weight of my 93 on our plant scales was 3761 without my fat but in there and don't remember how much gas was in it
 
RE: Weight of Stock Mark

How did your G-Tech numbers look? I made a post with my numbers. I think the MPH is a bit off though. Post yours if you get the chance. Thanks.
 
RE: Weight of Stock Mark

better check to see if your doors are draining. If you have a sunroof, check the drain holes there too. We had a car come in one day, and I swear, it had to have 5 gallons of water in each door.
water.... 1 gallon=7 lbs. 5 gallons =35 lbs 2 doors = 70lbs added weight.

Just a thought, but a very doubtful example, but.. ya never know!
