The news is out in the same way that GM claimed the Z/28 to be 200-300 pounds lighter. Turns out they meant 200-300 pounds lighter than a ZL1. I would place my bets that the 200#'s they're talking about is from previous GT or GT500 weight to the new 4cyl with performance pack. GT to GT I would guess (wild speculation here) that they gained 50-100 pounds. Unless they found a new way to loose weight while keeping the car roughly the same size and adding IRS, more interior features, larger wheels, and more saftey equipment.
I could see the 6th Gen actually being lighter than the mustang though and I really hope that's true. |
