03/04 Cobra weighed 3665 lbs. Thats the factory stated number. The IRS assembly adds much more weight to the Mustang. In 99, Ford shaved weight in front end to give the car better weight balance. In 2003 that went out of the window because the 03/04 Cobra SC DOHC 4.6L used the heavier 4.6 iron block (versus previous NA Cobras used aluminum), added the SC, with heat exchanger and etc.

I still think the 4000lbs base V8 camaro is BS heresay. The men in the know have said before that the car has been on Jenny Craig. If the car weighs in at 4000 lbs in base V8 form and people at GM said its been to Jenny Craig; then its not a Camaro.....its Christy Alley. I strongly believe that the car will weigh less than 3800 lbs but more than 3600 lbs.
