I'm not sure that you understand that because a car shares the same platform doesn't mean they will share the same dimensions, wheelbase, track etc. or weight. Platforms can be modified in many ways to support many applications. The Zeta platform that GM adapted for the 5th Gen Camaro was heavily modified from larger 4 door architecture. Alpha will have to be modified for the Camaro as it is being for the new CTS. An Alpha based Camaro won't share the same wheelbase, track, overall length or width with the CTS or ATS and thus it will be misunderstood to think the weight won't change either.
