Curb Weight of 05 GTO A4
Since GM gives the 04 GTO an estimated curb weight of 3725 lbs., how is it possible GM gives the same curb weight to the 05 GTO? If the LS1 engine is lighter than the LS2 engine, how can both the 04 and 05 weigh the same? If the hood on an 04 GTO weights 41 lbs and the hood on an 05 GTO weighs 45 lbs. (because of the hood scoops), how can both cars weigh the same?
In addition, how can an 04/05/06 GTO with 6 speed be the same weight as an A4? Don't automatics weigh more than manuals?
I can't determine power-to-weight ratio for my GTO if I can't determine its true curb weight. It costs over $1,000 to buy an AccuSet computer scale to find out which I can't justify doing.
Does anyone know for sure what a stock 05 GTO A4 weighs?

Thanks M6HUGGERSS for the advice. Went to Allied Movers and drove up their truck weight station. The charge was $6. My goat weighed 3740 with full tank of gas, car jack and spare tire.
