Confirmed Weights of Second Gens

Confirmed Weights of Second Gens
While we already have a sticky dedicated to what trim levels came with what, I wanted to search for a list of weights by model and by year to see exactly what the differences are, since the brochures don't give enough detail.
Hopefully, we can compile a list like what Icemark's page has. If anyone has verifiable information regarding the weights that are not included, please fill them in and cite the source. All weights are for the 5-speed model.

The problem is, the rotary comes w/ so much paraphernalia for emissions that kinda negates the weight savings of it's small size. The main advantage of the rotary, from what I can tell, is not it's lightweight but it's low profile. It's lower in the car, allowing better handling (better roll center or something along those lines).

On the door line of my TII it says 3150lbs. But here it say's 2850. Why is that? Is the weight stated on the car wet weight (oil, fuel, p/s fluid, etc)? Would all the fluids add an additional 200lbs?

The S4 numbers are incorrect for the Sport, and remember the GTU added insulation and GXL style carpets, Turbo seats, and power mirrors that the Sport didn't have.
And the GX or Luxury was not a GXL. It didn't have power windows, it didn't have the AAS or LSD or even 15" wheels.
So the S4 numbers are mostly incorrect. You need to have factory window stickers to get the actual weights.

The problem is, we don't have hard data for those models, just the ones that were taken off the Mazda Factory Brochures and your website, as well as rough estimations based of differences in similar models of another year.
The ones that were not estimated were taken off of the brochures stickied in this section or on your website.

I have my old 87 sports window sticker but have never had access to another that I could confirm the weight with.

The GVWR is the maximum with two passengers and cargo (to allowable limit) that the vehicle should weigh for road taxes (some states and countries bill your vehicle fees based on the load on the road).
