Make sure you push down on the car on the corner scales around it until the weight returns back to the same weight each time. I have weighed cars multiple times on corner scales and the first number before settling the car is always a bit light. Some times by 50-100lbs! My 2018 base A10 with the crap in the trunk taken out and engine covers removed weighed 3625 with about 2 gals of gas in it. This was stock otherwise. So probably about 3700 with a full tank of gas. Since I have installed some lighter exhaust, removed the active shutter system, wheels/tires and installed lighter rear rotors along with a few other small things. I will have to get back on the scale and see where I'm at now.

When I got my GT in August, I took it to a CAT scale, it weighted 3860 with a full tank & me in it. So a solid 3660 with out driver. This is a no option GT on a certified scale.

I've been wanting to weigh mine, and there are two within 20 minutes of me. So thank you for the link! Do you just call and make an appointment, or just show up and tell them what you want?
Nope just go there, no appointments. Just pull on the scale and press the button to talk to the operator and tell them you're weighing your car. Then go in and pay.

I went in first to clear it with the manager that I was allowed to weigh a car, but he had no problem with it at all.

What did you add to your car that weights 600lbs?

Lol :lol:

Supercharger
Methanol tank
Giant sound system and giant power wires.

Guessing about 450lbs is from the sound system and 150lbs is from the supercharger and meth/meth tank. Links to both in my signature lol.

Weighing any car is going to be on an individual basis, there will be too many variables to compare my car to yours as no doubt they will have different accessories and aftermarket components.
I weighed mine again today at our public weighbridge came in at 1880kg or 4144lb in your your language.

My 18GT is listed at 3680lb on the title/registration info. Not sure where they get that number from, or if it's just a carry over from the 2015.
i have a 2018 with the 10r80 pp it weighed at 3820 me outside the car

How is this possible? I though the reported factory weight on these '15-17 GTs wPP was in the 3800+ lbs Range? :shrug:
Most aftermarket parts are lighter than OEM. You'd be surprised how replacing just a set of wheels and exhaust free up weight. My 2016 PP was a base I think they rated it in the low 3700 range.
