Jordan is very impressed with the vehicle. He has only driven it on the streets a couple of times so its hard to be very detailed at this current juncture. We will have a more in depth review once he has be fortunate enough to take it out and do some real driving.

I could guess but i'd likely be way off and I simply can't give you guys that ammo . I know how these forums like to call a brother out for a mis-step

Jared, I am not sure if you had the chance yet, but any pro or cons with the larger ZL1 wheels and tires on the new SS? Harder steering, more noise, better grip ect?

That's impressive, especially the f/r weight ratio. I thought it was actually worse than the 5th gen, but obviously not. I wonder what is the weight difference between the automatic trans?

Does the MRC really add that much weight? Just curious as my car wasn't supposed to have it, but it does. Not sure if it's 20-50lbs difference or >100lbs lol. I don't think it would add much, but what do I know.

The Camaro finally feels right. Not like pushing a sedan how the Gen5 felt in comparison. Feels much lighter than the actual pounds lost. Love this car!

Pretty close to our 1SS A8. It weighted 3670 at a certified scale with a little over half a tank bone stock.

My 2011 2SS says it weighs 4,703 on the door..that's not right huh? I thought the 6th Gens only weighed about 300 pounds lighter than the 5th Gens?

That has to be the maximum weight not the actual.

What's the difference? Is there a way I can find out my actual weight without putting it on a scale?

Okay, so what's the difference and how do I find out my real weight? I'd have to put it on a scale?

My 15 2ss rs weighed right at 4000 lbs with almost tank of gas. I'm going to weigh my 16 this morning. I'll report back this after noon, I'm going to fill my car up and the drive back to the weight station is about 30 miles, so it should have about the same amount of fuel as my 15 did when I weighed it.

I believe gross weight is the maximum weight the vehicle should weigh when hauling passengers/luggage, etc.
