997TT VS C4S weight
Can someone please tell me what components add about 240 pounds to the 997TT over the C4S (both coupes, both 6-speeds). Thanks!

I wasn't aware there was that great a difference - did you weigh the two cars? Intercoolers and turbos probably add weight but that additional weight is offset with aluminum doors and hood. The C4S specs say unladen weight at 3,439 to 3,571 lbs (depending on equipment). The only spec I can find for the TT is unladen weight of 3,494 lbs.
