Weighed my 2SS Camaro

I live in a very rural area, so a close Coop gin scale was the closest I had. However, these things are certified and regulated, so they are just as legit as any others.
My car is a 2SS w/A8 Auto, MRC, and NPP. No sunroof.
Came in at 3720 w/approx. a half tank of fuel.
Maybe this will help anyone else, as most cars weighed have been manuals or Autos with sunroof.

Here is the weight of my 2ss rs 2015 with almost a full tank of gas 4005 and with me 4210. So, I think gm has it right on the number. Mine was weighed at an MFA coop here in mid Missouri.

The A8 is heavier the the M6 by at least 50 lbs. So, 37 something is good. Some scales will vary slightly. SO, 10 or 20 lbs is ok. Still much lighter then my 2015 gen 5, by a bunch, plus 30 more hp and that adds up to at least 1/2 second down the track or more.

What have the manual weights been coming in at? I'm going manual with no sunroof on a 2SS. Thanks.

That crazy little man is only posting on FaceBook. He's been ran out of pretty much forums for his constant spewings of bullshit.

The auto from C&D was 3760 auto with sunroof. So yours is heavier as you would add about 50lbs for gas with only a 1/2 tank and you have no sunroof. But those scales are not as accurate as the scales used for cars.

Fairly sure I have read the A8 is lighter...

I'd be shocked if the A8 was lighter. 2 more gear packs, more fluid, torque converter etc. Maybe in the Vette it is because the M7 has an extra gear and is a transaxle.

The manual is 3685 according to an article I just read and the 15 with a manual is 3908. I'm sure those are dry weights. So that's 223, what impressive is the 4 banger turbo weight and its gonna be a quick little ride for 275 hp. Somebody will have it in the 12's in no time.
