Default How much do they weigh?

Anybody know the listed weights of the ZO6's from 2001 up to today? I was told that my '01 was one of the lightest but have no idea how to check.

01-04`s are listed at 3118 but have seen many that weighed in at around 3050 or so. Not sure but I think the C 6 `s are couple hundred heavier.

C6s are rated at 3125, but they worked their asses off to keep the weight down. I wonder about my CE with its CF hood that's 10# lighter.

OP was talking about Z06s, so I didn't think to specify. I can see where post #2 might have made it a bit ambiguous.

A lot of drag strips have scales available at no charge to weigh your car but a little secret is that if your have a frieght/shipping company near by sometimes they will let you check yours for fun as they have to verify their trucks quite often
