Does anyone know how the weight compares w/ the previous generation?

Also curious if anyone has seen what the coefficient of drag is, and how it compares w/the last generation.

 

Current is about 3,450 lbs. 2004's curb is 3290?

 

Edmunds lists the curb weight at 3347.

 

cd? I don't care. It looks great, and that's good enough for me.

Curb weight, yeah, I can see ya worrin' about that. But CD?!? C'mon...

It's obvious it's huge. I mean, look at that nose! Gonna be .52345 or something like that I bet. I'm still wanting one.

 

looks really have nothing whatsoever to do with .cd I would bet the new car has better aero's then the old.

 

The new car is very clean aerodynamically speaking with the excpetion of the nose. And, the real issue with the nose is the large/mouthy grille and not it's upright nature.

Truth be told it is not going to be all that un-aerodynamic even with the large grille opening. And, unless you are trying to set a new speed record at the Salt Flats what real difference does it make?

As for weight my understanding is that the new car is about 50lbs heavier, option for option, than the 04's were. Put simply you will never notice it.
