It's real easy to go down to the local weigh station and they'll weigh you for under five bucks. No guessing about it! It's pretty common around here for cars to weigh in before leaving for the track. No flame intended. See ya.

the gvwr is with all passengers and full luggage
probably close to 900lbs over the unloaded weight.
Most tbi 305s are in the 3250-3300lb range.
Mine was 3180 after pulling air and putting on a fiberglass hood.

I weigh my car at Truck Weigh Stations. Where I live, you just pull up "after hours" and they leave the scale running (as many truckers need to monitor their weight to see if they can use certain roads). Costs nothing and since they have scales for multiple axles, you can even weight each axle to determine your front and rear weight.
BTW, my L98 GTA weighs 3,410 lbs with no driver and minimal fuel. This is about 100 lbs lighter than many other GTAs from other years.

I would actualy have it weighed like most of the other people who replied, cuz when U look at the gross vehicle weight, this is the intended weigtht the manufacturer had in mind with all full liquids, full passengers, and the average lugage the car can hold, it is going to be decently under that weight, prolly bout 300 pounds or so.
