According to Wikipedia the curb weight of my hard top 2 seater twin turbo is or was 1,501 kg, when I went on the track day I was able to weigh it myself and it was 50kg above this

 

Now before you say it I did leave my wallet in the car but surely not 50kg worth :huh:

Fifty pound notes weigh pretty much the same as twenties :whistling:

 

Amps have been added, bigger brakes, exhaust may be weightier, all my led mods!!!!, 30lts fuel, front strut brace, etc, so yeh probably about right at 1555kgs :thumbup:

Some manufacturers quote curb weight for a 'dry' car without fuel in the tank or water in the rad..

 

Also, unless they were digital corner scales (i.e one under each wheel) I wouldn't trust the figure anyway. Just use it as rough marker.

The brake rollers at my works MOT station got mine at 1740kg, I didn't think they were that heavy lol. It's a 2+2 TT

Imagine the weight if you had 18s fitted!!!! :tt2:

I nearly put wheels in my post but did think of you Baz, wonder though if mine are lighter than the OEM 16's :confused1:

 

TT LWB weigh as much as a Hummer :whistling:

30 litres of fuel will weigh almost 30Kg, so given the accuracy of the track weighbridge, which I suspect could be 5% out then you won't be far wrong.

about 20kg. Fuel has density of 0.737Kg/L

 

but yeh, I agree, sounds about right for your car and subs, amps and other changes.
