GT500 is always around 3800 pounds, but is also puts out the power needed to push that weight around. Live axle will stay, Ford has said "why stop using something you know best." The new GT will be sub 3500, putting it at the top of the 370z with leather/nav. With this 5.0L it will probably be king of the straight line for awhile unless GM can get their sh1t together and come out with a Z28 Camaro.
