dude im pretty sure awd dsm's dont weigh nearly as much as any v8 mustang



my eclipse weighed 3600 lbs or was it 3800

dont know where you are getting those ****ed up #'s from, but an awd dsm's curb weight is barely over 3k

No way it weighed that much, that was likely the GVW you looked at dude - the estimated weight of your car fully loaded with passengers and luggage.

I realize that now....according to nada it weighed 2954 and the gs-t spyder is like 3053 or something

you're right i'm wrong...:D ....so weight is factored in there too...but I'd have beat those stangs by more than 3/10s in the quarter
