What?

Fact: the 2-doors weigh less than the 4-door.

Why do the weight figures quoted differ? Two main reasons:
1. Different sources weigh cars differently. Some are shipping weight, some "curb" weight, others with full tank of fuel, others will half tank, etc.
2. 1200 models from different countries have different weights. Likewise for different trims (for example, Standard models vs. Deluxe models)

Check out this, from one source:
4-dr manual 1532 lbs
4-dr auto 1609 lbs
2-dr coupe 1520 lbs
5-dr wagon 1609 lbs

It is in the structure
for some reason 2 doors and coupes weigh in a little heavier as they need more support for the bigger doors, Convertables I think weigh in heafty as well

I have a little more info on these 3 models that might help piece the weight together.

It could be glass - I seem to remember hearing that the S13 silvia was lighter than the 180sx be a fair margin - one reason was the enourmous back screen of the coupe....

We've had this before and from memory everyone comes up with a different ute weight.

well for intrests sake my car got weighed last week. its a four door sedan with a CA18det, silvia gearbox, R31 diff and R31 fuel tank. it had about 50 L of fuel in the tak when i weighed it, it came in at a heifty 910kg.....i was surprised how much heavier than standard it was...oh well.

Elliott

ute is 695kg


why is the 2 door sedan heavier then they 4 door variant?? and why is the coupe heavier then both of them??
do you have the values the wrong way around or is there a reason for this??
