I beleive one of the newbie links has it, yet its around 2750-2900 lbs w/o a driver. Touring weighs more due to extra around the 2900 rangel, and regular or RI I believe was around 2750-2850. This is one of the reasons the cars so dam fast, alll the power and no weight .

Um, no. That's the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, or, the maximum recommended weight of the car, passengers, fluids, and cargo.
