According to MotorTrend 1994 GT Curb Weight = 3258lbs,. I think they are off by 200lbs's but who am I to argue.

And I want to make something clear before things get bent out of shape. I said my 93 GT (Full weight car,.. no weight modifications unless you count centerlines as a weight mod) was only 76lbs lighter then my 96 GT. My 96 GT had a QA1 tubular k-member. It still had stock a-arms at the time it was weighed. So the k-member was only worth 60lbs of weight savings,.. not the full 80lbs that coil overs and tubular a-arms would have given the car.
The typical SN95 car weighs in just shy of 3500 LBs. The 99 - 04 Cobra's picked up 150 lbs by the addition of the IRS plus the New Edge cars picked up 75lbs from their new sheetmetal and design. A 87 - 93 Fox GT had a curb weight of 3300lbs. A 87 - 93 5.0 Fox coupe was 3100 lbs. Those were the advertised weights by Ford and by Magazines I had read at the time.
So dont put me out on a limb and say Hurst says they are only 76lbs difference. My cars had a 76lb weight difference. But neither of my car were stock.
