HHR's weigh around 3200lbs - and are not very aerodynamic in comparison.

You know....

you will not know an accurate weight unless you have it on scales. Like redfocz did. Anything else is just guessing.

Mod.s, amount of fuel, extra "gear", change of tires and wheels, an the driver can have significant impact.

My HHR as it sits with 1/2 tank and me at the wheel was 3318 lbs. Thats on the scale at the Dragstrip here in Tucson. No weight reduction at all. Spare and all plastics, plus a big subwoofer box with 2 10's...

Thanks Jason.....

I thought a couple of people that had gone through the "process" would chime in.

I'm guessing you're CLOSE to 200#. Add to that about 8 gallons of gas...total add on (not counting the speaker boxes) in the neighborhood of 250#. So your car in "fighting" weight, is just under 3100#....counting the aftermarket wheels, tires, mods.

opps...just thought of this....assumed your were in the car. Is that correct?
