Joe? I am holding my owners manual from a 1986 944 and it list weight at 2778, the factory workshop manual i have has specific weights for 1985 ( not sure if this is early or late 85) and it list weight at 1255 kg or about the same weight... Unlike my BMW's and VW's and other race cars i have prepped this car has little "excess" weight. The front seats are about the same as most cars but the rears weigh next to nothing and there is no trim in the rear hatch area to speak of other than a 8lbs piece of carpet. The door panels and lower dash panels may account for 30 lbs maybe... If dipping a car is part of "fully developed" then the process needs rework. I rarely see a car that has been dipped and i dont see too many cars that can't make minmum weight without dipping....

Yeah well I don't smoke weed and I don't drink so that is not any part of this issue. I have sourced the 2675 number in several places and I asked to posts up if that was the right number. You could have presented your number without being rude about it. I am convinced that if the 944 is an ITA then several other cars better be treated the same way. You did not answer my question about the 97 240sx that is basicly the same specs with worse brakes and poor weight distribution. I see the 944 has the potential to be the E36 of ITA once somebosy decides to take one to the maximum extend and drive it at the same level.
