The "curb weight" meaning full fluids is what is used here in the U.S. So when comparing the weights of varies cars the "curb weight" is the correct weight to use NOT that 32xx obvious dry weight figure. Manufactures rarely ever list their cars "dry weight" so I'm not sure why Nissan decided to. Independent entities have all weighed the 370z well above 3300lbs because they weigh with full fluids (curb weight) as the vast majority of manufactures do. The 2012 GT-R's curb weight is 3965lbs in case anyone was wondering. According to Road & Tracks anyway which have proven pretty accurate in my experiences. It's amazing it can post the times it does with It's not so amazing power to weight ratio. It's AWD and auto-manual gearbox are beyond efficient at getting the power to the ground.
