For both the ZL1 and new Z06, the cars gained about 220 lbs over the regular V8 models. Granted, it probably isn't going to be as extreme a makeover with the ATS-V, but gaining 150-200 lbs would be entirely within reason IMO. That would put its curb weight somewhere around 3700 lbs or something like 150 less than the 1LE.

According to these specs, a '15 ATS RWD Coupe with 3.6 and Automatic Curbs @ 3529. Forged wheels and summer rubber should be a draw. Brakes, diff and turbos added will break 3600. Weight-savers, if any, will reduce. 1SS-1LEs are 3860. Somewhere between 2-300 lb. is do-able at ATS-V class-competitive price points.
