Z51 added weight
Do we know yet what the weight difference is in the Z51 and non-Z51 (assuming the same trim level, so say 1LT for both).
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the non-Z51 1LT I believe GM said woudl be 3298 lbs? And they haven't released the Z51 weight, but Motor Trend had it about 3450 lbs, except that was a 2LT and the car magazines usually have a higher poundage than the manufacturer.
Perhaps if we compare the Motor Trend pound overrage for the C6, and subtract that from the 3450 figure we can get a good estimate of the Z51 weight.
Does anyone care to do the math?

so we know what base is 3298lb
Motor Trend came in at 3444 with Z51, Mag ride, 3lt (not sure what the gas tank was at)
I believe another mag came in at 3404 but I'm not sure what the trim was. I think it's safe to say Z51 is 100lbs + or - 10lbs
