Weight weighting costs money. If the car overheats, it's a failure. All those components are going to be larger and heavier to deal with the extra heat. The trans could easily be 100lbs heavier. So there's over 200lbs just from the supercharger, intercooler, fluids, and trans. Now add larger tires, wheels, brakes, oil coolers, and I think that remaining 100 will go by pretty quickly.
If it has a carbon hood, fenders, aluminum subframes, that would be awesome, but you're probably looking at a $100K+ car. That would also be a failure.
Do you want a light weight affordable car that overheats? A heavy affordable car that does not overheat? Or A light expensive car that does not overheat? Those are kind of your only options. Now if it's a heavy, expensive car that overheats. Buy a 1LE. Haha.

What does the auto weigh?The ZL1 in typical trim weighs about 3950 with a manual. That's just over 200lbs more vs the SS 1LE which is about 3740 (bigger brakes, more fluids, coolers, etc etc). If we are to do a rough apples to apples, the GT500 should come in around 4000lbs on the nose base if we are to compare say a GT350 with the Track Pack.
