    997 GT3 Option (and sunroof) actual weights

    Just received this information directly from Porsche:

    Adaptive Sport Seats (both) - add 7 kgs (15.4 lbs)
    Sunroof (standard in U.S.) - add 12 kgs (26.5 lbs)
    Ceramic Brakes - subtract 18 kgs (39.7 lbs)

    Re: 997 GT3 Option (and sunroof) actual weights

    FYI, a standard Porsche 997 GT3 wheel bolt weighs 99 grams or 3.5 ounces for a total weight of 1.98 kgs (4.37 lbs) on all four wheels. Poggipolini titanium bolts for the GT3 weigh 59 grams each (2.08 ounces) or a total of 1.18 kgs (2.6 lbs.). The weight reduction with Poggipolini bolts is 800 grams or 1.76 pounds. But hey, it is unsprung/rotational weight (and they look really cool)... That's got to be worth $25 an ounce!

    adaptive sport seat add 7 kg more than CF bucket seats?

    Re: 997 GT3 Option (and sunroof) actual weights

    The car weights 1395kg with standard sport seats.

    If you put Carbon fiber seats the car will weight about 1375kg.

    If you put Adaptive sport seats the car will weight 1402kg.

    eh mi sembrava strano( it sounded strange....)
    I know that bucket are so much lighter

    Re: 997 GT3 Option (and sunroof) actual weights

    Is it only 7 kg heavier with both seats??
    I thought they (A.S.S.) weight approx. 20kg heavier than manuel sports seats in total. Now I'm happier to have adaptive sports seats instead of manual sports seats.

    - The CF Seats weight about 20kg in total (24kg less than standard).

    - The standard sport seats about 44kg.

    - The Adaptive sport seats about 51kg (7kg more than standard).
