2002 Z06 - What does it weigh
Stupid question... but how can I find out how much my z06 weighs (approximately)? I just bought a 2002 z06 and was trying to find an old magazine review or something.

3060lbs on the scale at Byron Dragway with 3/8 tank of fuel, subwoofer stealth box (shipping weight was 30lbs) but I do have longtubes with no cats so that probably cancels out what the stealth box weighs.

Do longtubes weigh less then manifolds, or is it just the facts of no cats that make it less weight??

As many have said, 3,100 lbs is an easy to remember number. I weighed mine and minus my growing weight it's just about right.

Most LT systems w/ pipes/cats come in around 22-27 lbs lighter than the OEM manifolds and pipes.
GM spec curb (wet, aka full of fuel) is 3115 for the C5 Z06. 10 lbs lighter for the Z16 cars.

Corvette C5 Specification
Well I haven't weighed mine in a while but Idavette's Corvette C5 Specifications reads that the hard top curb weight is 3173 pounds . Seems high to me . I also read GMs has the Z06 curb weight at 3115.

Yeah, but I swapped in a shorty antenna so I'm now at 3115.
EDIT: But I added a partition...damn, now back up to 3122.
