The "official" Gen Coupe weight thread by AMS by Ivan Phipps
As with all our development cars, we like to keep good notes on what things weigh and where we can save weight. I am going to try to keep all the recorded weights in one place and figured I would share this information with everybody.
I will regularly update this thread with weights as I get them. Feel free to post up any weights you may have and I can add those to this original post.
Today after work, I got out our Longacre corner weight scales and loaded the Coupe on it. I did not laser level the scales as we do for actual corner weighting but the area I used has been tested to be pretty flat. The corner numbers might vary a bit but the overall number is accurate.
