It IS 3900 lbs. It is NOT a pig. It doesn't drive like a pig, it doesn't accelerate like a pig, it doesn't handle like a pig. The car is planted, light on its feet, and crisp.
You don't need to believe me...and I'm glad you want to buy one. But for your own sake, try and test drive it -- you'll see that I'm speaking the truth.
On a side note, did you know that removing 500 lbs (which you'll never be able to do if you plan to drive it daily, so forget about it)...but I digress, if you remove 500 lbs, that's equivalent to adding only ~50hp?
