My information is more personalized, as it is my car that was weighed, with me in it. LA DOT scales.

There's 8 lbs in a gallon. The tank holds 19gallons. That means a full tank weighs 152lbs. Get the Z weight numbers and add 152lbs.

Curb weight IS with full tank. If your tank was full and you want the curb weight of the car, just subtract your weight from the weight slip. Below are curb (wet) weights.

Coupe

370Z -- 370Z Touring -- 370Z NISMO

MT6
3,245 3,291 3,314

7AT
3,283 3,329 N/A

Roadster

370Z --- 370Z Touring

MT6
N/A 3,479

7AT
3,459 3,501

Water weighs 8 pounds/gallon. Fuel is lighter. Methinks around 6 pounds/gallon?

correct.

Quote:

The specific gravity (or relative density) of gasoline ranges from 0.71–0.77 (719.7 kg/m3 ; 0.026 lb/in3; 6.073 lb/US gal; 7.29 lb/imp gal), higher densities having a greater volume of aromatics.

The car weighed 3380# with a full tank of gas. With me in it, it was just my weight heavier. I think the car was close to 3400# though, as it came in at 3580 and I am not 200#, more like 185#, so I think that scale works in increments of 20, and that means the car was probably like 3389 or something and the scale rounded down. It's an LA DOT scale used for highway weight limit enforcements.

curb weight "should" include a full tank of gas.

Gas is also ~6.2lbs/gal
