That weight is not the vehicle weight, that is the weight of a car with full tank of gas, fluids, max # of passengers, full cargo, etc.....

Definition: Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
It’s how much weight a vehicle is designed to carry. The GVWR includes the net weight of the vehicle, plus the weight of passengers, fuel, cargo and any additional accessories. The GVWR is a safety standard used to prevent overloading.

Still an 800lb delta.

Whats more amazing is that our ZR-1s were hefty for their day at 3,465lbs....I hear the 2014 Corvette will be 2300lbs.....so all of the high tech, light weight materials are offset by the technology

there is no way the c7 will be 2300lbs a lotus exigie is around 2000lbs and there's nothing in them

makes more sense now. if the zr-1 is 3400 wouldn't that make the lt1/l98 cars 3200ish since the zr-1 is 200lbs heavier?
