GT350 Shipping weight

[65Terdlingua]

Has anyone seen this invoice yet? Can anyone confirm if this is real or fake? I saw this on a ford trucks website and it lists the shipping weight as 3512lbs. I assume that this probably isn't a real invoice, but someone on here would know.

Ask PP0001 about that... he may be able to give some good insight.

I'm not up on the package codes. Is that an "R" or "non R".
If that's a "non R" it would indicate the "R" is UNDER 3400lbs,,,,if true of course.

Non-R

It's a non R - its equipped with the track pack.

If, and that's a big IF this info is accurate from the other site, the weight for these cars will be a wet dream

No kidding! That would make the regular GT350 over 300 lbs lighter than the 2015 Z28 Track Car...and the R model would be over 400 lbs lighter!! :eyebulge:

I ran the VIN and it appears to be real - and the prices are correct. The shipping weight includes all fluids except a full gas tank, I think, so ready to go with a full tank and no driver could be 3,600.

its a non R, the code is 900A, R is 920A
if accurate, that would be too cool.

Who cares about the also-ran z/28 built on an obsolete chassis? The rear tale of the tape will be what the next, Alpha-based, track-specific Camaro tips the scales at in a year or two.

Unless Holden/GM do some serious investment in lighter metals in the chassis department, it's still gonna be heavy.

You can't dismiss the Z/28 so quickly, IMO. Yes, it's heavy, but it is also very well tuned and balanced, it has a great engine, and great tires. It may be heavy, but it is still a very good car.

If that shipping weight turns out to be real, Ford will have really surprised a lot of people.

There is no way the car is that light, especially the track package which will be heavier than the base model. And not with $43.68 worth of fuel either.

Shipping weight is all fluids minus fuel.

3,512 +15gal( there is usually just enough to get it off the truck)= 3,600lbs.

I'm not putting much stock in a shipping weight being representative of the actual weight on a scale.
