    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?

    Hmmm 980 as a CL? Do ya reckon the 4 door would be heavier Loon?

    MattyT got 1240 if I remember correctly when he weighed his car for the track, sounds like you've got a trick motor in there Mat.

    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 always remember driving my vr6 after hopping out of my brothers Seat cordoba. Was always a satisfying experience

    I probably drive 3 different ones every week mate. I know how they drive and this one is just freaky fast I have lent it to a few people who have also driven lots of Vr6s, Oli, Beau and yesterday Dom and they all agree.

    Have you still not got your car back Mickey??

    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 ).
