Default weight of a C4

Are all C4's about the same weight or does it vary from 84's to 96. How much do my 84 weigh. Thanks.....

According to the "Corvette Black Book" the 3,309 LB 94 Coupe is 100 LBS more than the 95 Coupe (3,209). Anyone know why?
The lightest Vette was the 84 at 3,192 LBS.

Since no one can agree on the weight of your '84, you might want to take it to a truck scales and find out first-hand.

The only way to know is find a weigh station and weigh it....

My 96 LT4 with full tank of gas and no spare (jack is still there) weighed in at 3280lbs...

The newer C4s were heavier then the older ones.

Full weight with my in the car is barely over 3400lbs.... I want to lose some weight in that thing. How am I supposed to keep up with my buddies RX7 that weighs 2600lbs and does 303whp
