how much gas did you have in the car?

If the weight of your MY01 is less than the stated honda amount by XX lbs how can you not be sure that the CR is also lighter than the stated amount by the same XX lbs?
where does it tell you from honda what MY00-01 weighs?





prolly about half a tank or so.

Edmunds.com list the weight as supplied by the manufacturer

Maybe we can get some to weigh the CR and see. Seems like everyone has always thought the old S2K was around 2700 LBS. I was surprised as well to find out Honda doesn't list it as much more than the AP2 models

where in the world did you get " AP1 from factory - 2808 lbs? "

i myself went to a scale and my car weighed 2740 with 17" work emotions.
my friend who also went with his bone stock 07 it weighed 2800 exactly.
stop being in denial, 00 - 01`s also have less speakers & plastic window compared to 02-03 models.




not to mention ; comparing the 07 with MY01.. the seats do look heavier(imo) , the 07 has 6 speakers total, traction control, 17"wheels with bigger offsets, glass window...
Well unfortunately looks can be deceiving. I was actually off a pound as the AP1's come in at 2809. Very odd ,but it makes sense Honda has done anything that would add over a hundred pounds to the cars.

Where do you guys get this rediculous informantion. Why would the AP1 with CR running gear be as fast as the CR? The CR (F22C) engine makes more power/torque, has a stiffer chassis, more aggresive springs/shocks/sway bars, aero dynamic tuned parts, grippier seats for better control. So what on earth makes you think an AP1 would be faster. Some people on this forum just have no clue.

Honda lists the 06-07 at 2820 in the brochure so I've always taken it at that. We can't say how much less your car weighs if we haven't weighed any other cars. If we use Hondas weight as a baseline then the difference is eleven pounds. I'm pretty sure Honda isn't estimating what the difference is so by whatever scale Hondas using their isn't twenty pounds difference between them.

I guess what we need is someone to weigh 00, 02 , 04 , 06 and 08 as well as 08CR to really see

btw.. you're right the '08 exhaust is different.. or maybe it could be '06+???

All I know is that my '05 exhaust rear-section looks COMPLETELY different, it uses a ROUND resonation tube before the resonator, instead of the oval one the CR exhaust has on it (pictured on the last page), and also... you're correct, the CR exhaust does not have the u-pipes on the back of the mufflers, as my MY05 has.... hmmm, I believe that statement was correct..

The CR does utilize a different rear exhaust section from the other AP2's... hmm.. I never knew that.. hahaha

Do you have anything to back up your statement? That sounds ridiculous to me.



Anyways, I'm pretty sure by this time CR owners are hating AP1 owners with passion.
