It weighed in at 2,955 lbs! I guess not having the moonroof, power seats, leather, and Bose do lighten it up some. That was with a 1/4 tank of gas.

 

That Bose must weigh a good 150 lbs then!!

 

When you add up BOSE, leather, fake wood, fuzzy pillars, pop-out drawers, sun roofs and climate control...no wonder GLEs are so slow.

 

Is that weight w/ you in the car?

In my auto w/ me in it, i weighed in at 3185lbs @ Englishtown.

 

Ignanz ownz j00!!!


And I like the fake 'creature comforts'.

 

What mods do you have that let you run as fast as I do with OSCAI only?

 

The sunroof deflector. It allows for 23 lbs of lift, making my car faster than it would be without it.

 

Thats just the car, without me in it.

 

Damn...I need to get one of those...even though I don't have a sunroof.

See, you have to mod the hell out of your GLE to keep up with my supa fa$$ GXE

 

Did you really run 15.7 @ 90mph??

 

Not at all.

Those pop-out drawers are hype, best part about the car! I love playing with it.

 

In -- Out -- In -- Out -- In -- "Oh look I finally made it up to 60 mph."

I guess you need something to do while you wait for all that extra "luxury" to get up to speed.

 

Yeah, but for some strange reason, the inside of mine is WAY more comfortable than yours. And last time I checked, you really can't feel .3 seconds in the 1/4 mile difference, so I'll take my sunroof, my pop-out drawer and NON-SHINY pillars and gloat over them while I listen to my 200W Bose CD player in my electronically controlled leather seats.

 

Wow, an average of a .2 second difference? You can actually feel that? Pretty damn amazing.

 

I prefer cloth, and mine is electrically adjustable. Plus my stereo sounds much better than BOSE.

And I think fuzzy pillars are just a little pretentious, don't you?

I can't afford to lose the headroom to a sunroof, I mean I'm 5'7" tall for cryin out loud!

 

I wish my GXE had a sunroof. My poor car left the factory stripped. mzmtg I hope you're joking about not enough headroom foor a sunroof. I'm 5' 10" and have tons of headroom.

 

Well, as far as the stereo goes, I upgraded mine myself. The new set up sounds quite good, especially for the money. No gain in weight either.

 

The STOCK Bose system is generally regarded as a VERY good setup. Fuzzy pillars pretentious? I'd rather have them look like the roof than have EVEN more cheap looking vinyl in the car. GXE's are good basic cars, but I'd still take a nicely loaded one anyday.

BTW, I'm 5'9" and still have plenty of headroom with my sunroof.

 

Hey hey hey, my pillars are not vinyl, the are finely molded plastic, thank you very much.

 

 

Where's that "This thread has gone to ****" guy when you need him?

 

u mean the tray under the bose stereo?

 

if yours doesn't come out on its own and you just have a tray.. then Canadian GLE's are American GXE's

 

mine has a light..blah

 

I think my car is the most stripped down maxima ever made. I have been trying to convince this guy to weigh it on a truck scale at his work but he's a puss and doesn't want to get in trouble. Oh well.

 

They dont have any weigh in scale @ your local track?

 

no way, I'm not a gxe lova like u

 

My local track has been being rebuilt for a year and a half now. its supposed to open in may. and the 6 or so other tracks i've been to i havent bothered to weigh it. most of the times the scales are closed.

 

Well, they look like leather.


GXE Power!!!!!

 

And the cloth feels like leather , right?

 

mi gxe tiene mui leather

 

El cuero en su GXE no es estándar como mío.

 

As a comparison, I weighed my 5th gen 5 speed SE with leather, moonroof, power everyhting, Bose, etc, etc and it came in right at 3200 lb with fumes in the tank and no driver. As soon as there is some gas and driver in there, its over 3500 lb

 

usted está mui correcto
