Since Subaru is way off on their scale- to the tune of 250lbs for the SVX. Our GT was a porker to the tune of 3650lbs. [ If I remember right Subaru claimed it weighed 3310. I would suspect your 3360 is a pipe dream as well.

3360lbs is the highest curb weight i've seen, so i went with that. i've seen 3200 and 3295lbs quoted for the '05 GT as well. still not "within 100lbs" of 2 tons.

Explains why as Motor Trend states "Despite the industrial-feeling gearbox, the GT should hit 60 in around 5.5 seconds".
On the other hand I can get a 5 second launch all day long by simply stepping on the gas, no need for the harbor freight engine sounds associated with the boxer or have to play with a slipper clutch.

not me, i are at stage2 for less than $1000. fat Jags can't hang.

Yes pot metal and fake metal trim is so much nicer than real walnut. It is quite annoying when people from all walks of life keep coming over to ya to admire your car though. They always say they want one but wish Jaguar used more attractive fake metal like the UJAs do.

i'm not a fancy man like you, Mr. Powers, i'm an evil frickin' doctor. go put some Pledge on your steering wheel.
