We know everything, except the weight

Well it certainly isn't going to be lighter than a GT premium @ 3900 lbs. I dunno where you're getting these 3800 from.

Once again, my GT weighed 3700. No GT weighs 3900 from factory

Because the GT fastback doesn’t weight 3900lbs.

M6 - 3705
A10 - 3733

Well the convertible A10 does.

The heaviest of the bunch, the Bullitt is 3850, not sure where you're getting the 3900 from.

Ok i concede.. we'll just wait.. kinda like FORD waiting to the last second to announce weights on the GT500.

The weight of the driver might make bigger overall weight difference than the upgraded parts

Everyone needs to stop looking at Ford's published weights. The M6 GT at 3705 lbs is a base GT with no options. Same with the A10 weight of 3,733 lbs. Y'all are forgetting the base GT has 18" wheels with skinny all season tires. PP1 and PP2 adds weight (bigger wheels/tires, bigger brakes, bigger radiator, thicker springs/anti roll bars, strut tower brace, etc.). Options also add weight (more speakers, subwoofers, etc.). A Mach 1 will probably weigh more like a PP1 or PP2 GT plus coolers/fluids. I'm guessing 3,870 lbs, +/-.

Look at published weight results from mags like Car and Driver and Motortrend - they weigh test cars with the provided options and a full tank of gas:

2016 Camaro SS M6: 3,696 lbs (Motortrend)
2020 Shelby GT350R: 3,717 lbs (C&D)
2016 Camaro SS A8: 3,760 lbs (C&D)
2019 Camaro SS 1LE M6: 3,773 lbs (C&D)
2019 Shelby GT350: 3,818 lbs (C&D)
2019 Mustang GT PP2: 3,821 lbs (C&D)
2018 Mustang GT PP1 A10: 3,851 lbs (C&D)
2017 Camaro ZL1 A10: 3,925 lbs (C&D)
2020 Shelby GT500 CFTP: 4,059 lbs (C&D)
2020 Shelby GT500: 4,171 lbs (C&D)

It's worth noting that the SS trims are lighter than the similar Mustang GT trims despite carrying 3 extra gallons of fuel (19 lbs) AND having the necessary coolers.

So the Car Guide number (3849 M6) I posted seems reasonable.

A loaded Mach 1 will likely weigh as much as a PP2 at worst. Yes, it has coolers, but they’re small and mostly offset by the weight savings of the lighter trans

 

[5.2 VooDoo]

Coolers may be small, but they contain heavy fluids and the associated plumbing (also full of dense fluids).

Well, I just saw this from the Ford media tech. guide; this supports my 3,870 lbs estimate for a Mach 1. It will get a little heavier as options are added, like an upgraded stereo w/subwoofer, etc. But at least it won't grow the same amount like a base GT to a PP1 GT since it has all the go fast goodies of the PP1/PP2 already as part of that weight.

3,868 lbs for M6 and 3,913 lbs for A10.

2021 Mustang Tech Specs (ford.com)

The 480 hp Mach 1 A10 is only 12 lbs lighter than a 650 hp A10 ZL1.
