1997 Saab 900 curb weight 2,940 lbs.
1999 Saab 9-5 curb weight 3,350 to 3,560 lbs! About a 100 or so less for a MT.
A 2011 nissan sentra is about 100-150lbs less than my car.
In my car when you try to lighten it by kicking out the spare and jack, you become very front heavy. Its 60 front 40 rear weight distribution to begin with. When i try to preserve momentum and kick it around a corner you can really feel it.
Maybe 3,000 lbs doesn't seem a lot to most people. I think an ideal car should weigh a lot less. I know that every hundred pounds lighter a car is makes a big difference.
