Just curious what type of scales were used, by looking at the results it would appear there were individual pads under each tire. If the vehicle being weighed is not on a level surface or the pads are not leveled the results can be skewed.
If the scales were balanced the steering column and associated driving components on the drivers side could account for the difference in weight between the right and left side front. I weighed my 2010 1LT with about 1/4 tank of fuel completely stock and it weighed 37000 lbs. My 1LT has the 19" polished aluminum wheels but it is not uncommon for a certified scale to be off 100lbs or more.
I thought there was a slight difference between the weight front to rear ratio between the V-6 and the 6.2 L V-8. I thought the I remembered reading the V-6 was closer to 50-50 than the V-8. I think the ratio comes into play a lot more in handling on a road course, but lighter weight sure helps on acceleration and braking.
