WELL, it first started on forza2. Then on random websites that has specs on it. IDK, mostly everything I read says its 2600lbs. I'm just curious.

My EP3R brochure says it weighs 1,190 kg (~2,623.5 lbs).

My 2004 EP3 (Si) brochure says it weighs 2,782 lbs.

This is your reason? Wow lol.

Forza 2 has a lot of problems, it's not as spec accurate as it boasted about.
