Thanks for the writeup Dom.
I also weighed it the other day and it was 1220 with a tabk of fuel. So probably 1180 with minimal petrol in it.
It was 980ish as a CL. Anyone know what a 5 door VR6 weighs?

mine was just over 1200 with the back seats out and a full tank of fuel. My car has a sunroof as well.
So it seems like the weight difference is negligible.
Perhaps youre just enjoying a fresh engine.
I miss my vr6...
How long since you've driven one Matt? It could be that tooI know I'm gonna think my car will be nuts because I haven't driven anything with anywhere near the power.. (lawnmower 1.5l mirage...siiiickkk)

That's with the colour concept leather interior. A standard vr6 is probably a smidge lighter. I dont remember how much fuel was in at the time, maybe half a tank or so.
In other news it appears this uber vr6 has made the bay, http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....B:FSEL:AU:1123

that seems about right.. there was about a 50kg difference from a some vw brochure between the 5dr cl and the 2 dr cl ( in australia ).
