Stripped 5.0 v loaded weight difference??

[FiveLiterDreamer]

I ordered a guArd 5.0 stick spoiler delete and recaros with 3.55 what do you think the weight savings will be vs a premium gt with performance pack? Or a fully loaded gt with every box checked adaptive cruise shaker pro etc... ?

About 100 lbs at the most.

Which wheels did you order?

Expect around 20-30lbs difference between power/non-power seats, maybe 5-10lbs for audio(assuming no Shaker Pro), and that's all I can think of. I'd bet less than 50lbs, probably closer to 30lbs.

There is no myford touch system (i'd think that in itself is heavy) I got the 18" painted foundry aluminum wheels (641)

A touch screen headunit weighs about 5-7lbs by itself. The bigger difference would be the Shaker Pro with the trunk subwoofer. The woofer in the S197 was about 12-15lbs.

Has anyone seen the Guard 2015 GT (or any other) with the 18" Foundry wheel (641) I am confused by the pics in the order guide and from the configure. they look black in some pics and bare metal in others?

Yea, I am a big weight guy and will be ordering a premium due to the fact I think the diff will be less then 50lbs and worth the extra quality interior look of the premium. Weight savings will come from wheels, driveshaft, front sway delete etc. just like the current model with recaros.

They are more bare metal.

Another big source of extra weight for the performance pack GT is the front brakes which bump the rotors from 13.9 inches to 15.0 inches with 6-pot calipers. Those huge steel rotors are heavy.

352 (13.9 in.) x 32-mm vented discs, four-piston 46-mm fixed aluminum calipers; Performance Package: 380 (15.0 in.) x 34-mm vented discs, Brembo six-piston 36-mm fixed aluminum calipers

The Track Package(Performance pack is for the Ecoboost) can be had on both base and premium models.

The big brakes will definitely be heavier.

I also thought the leather seats add a bit of weight in the GT Premium (besides the power motor), especially over the Recaro's.
