What makes our car so much heavier than a civic? list some parts that make the lancer heavy

 

I'm just saying stock for stock. what the hell do they put in there that makes them so heavy

 

Lots of metal and plastic.

 

I'm pretty fat... that's why my Lancer weighs so damn much.

The obvious things are we're longer, wider, and our engine is quite noticeably larger.

 

2 extra doors, big a$$ trunk, probably heavier frame, take a look at our engine bay and civics, also the length of the car, and .2 more liters make a little difference too.

 

^^You mean .3 liters since they have a 1.7 liter that makes 115hp with dx and Lx and 120-something in the EX. But damn...i seriously think my dads 1992 Toyota Corolla with 187k miles that weighs only 2207lbs and has a 106hp 1.6 liter is faster than my OZ. The only thing that could possibly make it slower is the 3 speed Automatic compared to my 4 speed overdrive. LoL. What a comparison.

 

2002-2003 Lancer 4dr = 2646lbs curb weight.
2001-2004 Civic 4dr = 2421lbs curb weight.

Just lose 200lbs and ur all set. =)

The new Civic Si is like 25xx lbs.. nearly the same as us.

 

or you could cut the top off...and be the 1st person with topless lancer

 

Best mod I've heard this week. *I wounder how many people will try that now* lol

 

Civics are only a couple hundred lighter. The older models are even lighter because the safety requirements get stiffer over time.

Someone did a photochop a while back, it looked fugly.

 

Make it like this...It will be about 1,000 lighter....

 

^ ever read the article associated with that? It's so funny, I almost fell out of my chair. They did get that naturally aspirated sedan under I think 14 seconds with $0 budget!

 

Yeah, it was on Sportcompact.com articles.

 

who cares it a civic. i lovecheese so much... my quesedilla is soo good.
