Care to elaborate why ONLY the Ford GT has a dry weight, but, every other car in existence has fluids and fuel factored in? I'm curious, truly.

Horsepowerkings just released an article today stating the price of the Ford GT is actually around $397,000 and weigh's around 2,890LBS. Still, you're not getting close to 3,300-3,400LBS as you stated with fluids/fuels IMO.

Either way, think about the power/weight of what the ZL1/Z28 does, now, take out about 700-800LBS, toss in a more aerodynamic car with better suspension/handling. The Ford GT may just become a monster as those two cars are.
Source? I read the facts before I post on here typically... And definitely not something from Horsepower Kings.

As far as Dry weight, I have only seen super cars or some European manufacturers talk about Dry Weight to make it look better. GM along with Ford display the WET weight of all their cars on their websites... Except Ford GT.

Also, I never said it weighs over 3,300 pounds..
