Weight is...

V6:

LT:
3750 (A)
3741 (M)

LS:
3769 (A)
3780 (M)

V8 (SS):
3913 (A)
3860 (M)

I really like the Camaro, and considering my daily driver, I'm their target market. I very much want to fall for this car, but at nearly 3,900 lbs. for a V8 manual, I just can't. I'm close enough to that point where a test drive could put me over the edge, but right now I'd rather have something lighter. For a negligible weight gain over the Camaro I could get a G8 with a much more usable back seat and trunk. While the Pontiac is not nearly as sporty of a looker as the Camaro, it's also more of a sleeper. It's really a shame about the weight, but I have hopes that with the gas prices downsizing everything nowdays, maybe the gen 6 F-body will go on a diet. Let's just hope it doesn't take 8 years between generations.
