How much does my car weigh? I can't find any stats on telling me this. I have looked in my Haynes manual and here in the tech and faq section. It is an 89' GTA Trans Am.

Can't remember where, but I thought I read that my GTA was about 3500 lbs.

I weighed my car at Englishtown Raceway Park; it came up at 3800-odd pounds.. pretty heavy for a v6. I have larger rear tires (P275/60r15) and steel wheels, maybe that's the extra weight- although I've also removed my a/c compressor & condensor.
