The 3400 Grand Am should be a touch quicker than the other V6 Camaros.
V6 Camaro weighs in around 3400 pounds (on average).
V6 Grand Am weighs in around 3150 pounds (on average).


Want to know for sure???? Go race.

WOW, I would have sworn 4,000lbs. Maybe that was why the car slid back across I95 after bouncing off that guardrail. Too bad, if I would have had that extra 600lbs I might have been able to take on that 18 wheeler that crushed my car!

Mine is 3590 pounds with a quarter tank of gas and no driver.
Iron block and 9" rearend added about 160 pounds to the car.

Re: v6 camaro vs 2005 v6 grand am

Iron block? I would be tempted to add that HP or STS turbo kit. Of course, if it's a daily driver and $5k is not readily in the bank I might change my mind.

By the way, haven't heard from you in years. Congrats on the Mod upgrade. Have you made anymore videos?

I went iron block in case I feel the need to fire boost/bottle at the motor later. Just a little insurance is all.
New video...

Re: v6 camaro vs 2005 v6 grand am

That was a great video. Loved the music and the way it was put together. Definitely not amateur material. As for stock "ish," that is quite misleading.

I'm glad I'm not the one buying your tires. I can't believe that car has such low miles for the amount of time you have owned it. You must not drive it much.

Forgive me for my rash "turbo" comment. If I was the owner I would leave perfection alone.
