That the weight listed from the specs is 1300kg. That equates to 2,866.01 lbs.

Just keep an open mind folks, I don't think the weight is set in stone yet... let's be patient until some magazines weigh the thing themselves!

I tried to weigh it myself but it was too heavy and I couldn't get a good handle on it...

but it definitely weighs more than my bernese mountain dog

I should hope so.. else your dog is quite large

For whatever it's worth, I spent quite a bit of time talking to a really nice Mazda guy at the NAIAS yesterday, and he seemed to think it would come in somewhere between 2700(???-I SWEAR that's what he said, but I don't think that's possible)-3000lbs. So who knows what it's going to be. I'll be very happy if it's under 3000lbs at this point.

Maybe, I'm just really tired, but I didn't see a weight listed In Lafar's post. I did see that figure in the post on the UK specs.
