Default How much weight does the 2LT and 3LT packages add to the 1LT?

I'm just wondering how much a Corvette weighs with the 2LT package compared to a Corvette with the standard 1LT package? And how much a Corvette weighs with the 3LT package compared to a Corvette with the standard 1LT package? I'm assuming that the 3LT is so rich in options that it will weigh down a standard-equipped Corvette by around 100 lbs. What do you think? And what are the facts? Thanks in advance for the info.

The 3LT package adds 64 pounds to the coupe.

I figured this out because in Canada our base models come equipped with all the same stuff that comes on the 3LT package, and GM Canada's website lists the curb weight of a coupe at 3243lbs. The Chevrolet.com website (for the US model) lists the curb weight of the Corvette coupe at 3179. So therefore this must mean the 3LT options make up the difference between those two numbers.

Brilliant deduction Watson!

It would be interesting to find out how much the other options add to the weight as well, such as F55 or Z51 (I'm sure they both add at least 25lbs) or chrome wheels (they must add at least a couple of pounds per wheel)
