I don't think a single person is calling BS.

I think it's a great time and there is room for improvement. 13.5 at 103 with almost 300 to the wheels isn't unbelivable in a 3200lb car.

You have dead bodies in the trunk?

Your gonna make me weight it huh.....

3700 is alot but it would make some cense why they run the times they do stock. We know the motor is underated by quite a bit from the factory yet the caliber and Speed 3s are a decent bit faster in stock form.

If it's 3700 pounds I will be dissapointed. Thats what 500 lbs over manuf. specs?

3280 dry is what the net shows.

So 3330 with a couple gallons of fuel/oil before driver.

Did you remove the spare and rear floor bottom?

I wish there was a track close by so I can see what it would run

If you open your drivers door you will see a placard with the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating).

GVWR includes:
1) The Factory weight of the vehicle.
2) The weight of all accessories
3) The weight of the driver and passengers
4) The weight of the cargo (including fuel).

If you look on the drivers door jam you can see the tire placard and it has the maximum vehicle capacity weight, which is passengers and cargo.

If you subtract the number on the tire placard. Lets say 900 lbs from the number on the GVWR placard, lets say 3800 lbs, then the vehicle should way approximately 2900 lbs with no driver, passenger, animals, cargo, maps, sodas, sweet tea, dirt, lint, owners manual, plastic bag for owners manual, pretty leather pouch for owners manual, cd's, ipods, miscellaneous papers, french fry between the seats, prisms, dingle berries, fuzzy dice, radar detectors, etc..etc...

Then if you drive to your local truck stop and pull on the scales, exit the vehicle, weigh the vehicle, you will know exactly what the weight of the vehicle is on that day at that time.
