3420#'s LOL

[Tim Hilliard]

I found a dealer who had a stock ordered car exactly, save for color as mine. It was, still showing awaiting shipment. But I called them and asked for the ship weight on the invoice. My understanding is they shouldn't have had an invoice unless they literally just got the email from Ford. So I ask for the ship weight and the answer I get is 3420. I laugh and explain that seems a little low. I am then told well the '15's are lighter than the '14's.


My invoice for my '14 lists the weight at 3520. The '15 is optioned exactly the same way. 300A (TP)PP/Recaro's. So either the content in the loaded test Mustangs is very heavy and the fuel tank is chock full with high specific gravity gasoline or someone's lying.

This week I will remain I realistically hopeful even though I know the information provided is false. :headbonk:

I wanted invoiced ship weights because they should be a decent gauge as to where these cars compare to the 14's.

Invoices have been done on cars since the day they showed up in production. 201A EB shows 3418#. GT with stick and 50 year appearance package shows 3633#. 401A with GT PP shows 3606#, as does 300A & 400A with Recaros and PP.

I am making a pitstop at the truckstop scales...lol that will be the true weight minus my body weight....I think I will be happy... Besides, the curb weight of the car won't necessarily be the actual weight of the car... None of the reviews said they slapped the mustang on the scale... and they were, for the most part, fully optioned mustangs

You Sir, are my hero. I thank you. What this tells me is my car gained only 86#'s, not 200.

Borat said it better than I could...

I just pulled up invoices for '14 and '15 Mustang GT automatic coupes, both with 400A package. '14 shows 3577 lbs while the '15 is heavier at 3633 lbs.

The R & T GT review had "corner weights" listed on their test sheet, so I'd guess they at least put one on a scale (or 4).

Nice. Only a 56 lbs difference.

So, can you pull up other invoices to see listed curb weights? *hint*
