2800ish is not quite as good as I would have hoped from the size of the car, but considering it shares much of its platform and development with the larger cruze it might not be quite as light as it should be based on the external size.

From the LT manual sedan to the LTZ the range for the sonic at base curb weight was around 2727 to just over 2800 at the base level. I don't know as I haven't been around long enough yet to know if you have the sedan or the hatch, but the hatch weighs slightly less to start from 2690 lb for the LS manual to 2776 for the LTZ manual.

The Cruze is over 3100 lbs though, so it is still a fair margin smaller weight wise. Close to 10% lighter than the cruze.

Suss just knows everything. I guess that's what you get when you push the envelope.

What are you even going on about? Knowing how to find the information is half the battle, but actually knowing everything isn't all its cracked up to be.

If your car currently has a swabar or your crossmember has the mounting brackets, yes.

Nah, I get it, its all about the humor and the power of sarcasm.

I am a fan of sarcasm, but it can be hard to tell with me when I'm being serious or sarcastic in text/ writing/ typing....
