Those weights are interesting. Why would North American B310's weigh in at 772 lbs [350kg] MORE than other B310's? I mean, that's a LOT of extra weight.
This would mean that a North American B310 two door Sedan with A14 comes in at 2,680 lbs or 1.215 KG. Thats almost a ton & a quarter.
If that was true, & I have my doubts, the B10 two door Sedan comes in with a weight saving of 590kg or 1,301 lbs.
I think that something is amiss here.
The info is from Haynes manual (I thought it too tediuous to list all the exact details but the statement re USA models is correct within 10kg depending on model). Maybe due to heavier bumpers, emmissions gear, cat converter, air-con, etc - don't know about Aus, but in NZ we didn't get any of that drama. Accept it does seem a lot extra though.
