Weight difference

I'm having problems finding out the weight difference between my 07 Mustang GT Automatic and my 08 Bullitt.
I think I found that the automatic is 184 LBS more then the manual transmission.
Is there a good internet site that could shed some light on my question ?

We have a thread around here somewhere that we were citing weights of all the 05+ GT's a few weeks ago.

The most definitive answer on weights I can suggest is to take your cars to a truck scale along a major interstate freeway near you. Go when they are closed (nights, usually) so you don't interfere with commerce. The scales are typically on 24/7, free to use, and easily read from outside.

I weighed my '07 GT Automatic Coupe last week on the way back from drag racing at the track. It was 3,500 lbs with spare/jack removed and 1/2 tank of gas. Add me (180 lbs) and the scale actually read 3,680 lbs with me in the car. Put the spare/jack back in and fill the gas tank, and my well-optioned & supercharged heavy GT should be just under 3,600 lbs.
