I should have noted that when I weighed mine, the spare, jack, and tools were not in the car, but the trunk was. I had a brass radiator then which I've replaced with an aluminum one. I guess over all, my weight was a bit compared to a normal car. On the other hand, I don't carry a spare because there is nowhere to stow my oversized tires/wheels so it's not that far off from a normal driven weight for me.
