So I found a webby that had the Curb weight values for the T200s (minus 204) and I was looking at some of the data and it surprised me when it said the automatic ST was 340kg heavier than the manual ST.

So now its really bothering me, I haven't been able to find any other sources on how much the auto weighs and I don't have one myself so I can't go out and weigh it.

Sooo.......

How much does it actually weigh? And if 1510kg is accurate... Why does it weigh so much?

1086kg = curb weight (2,415 lbs)

That's not bad at all for the ST.

But these aren't actual real world numbers and I don't know if this is auto or manual, but # from two different web sources...

Thats what I would think but I haven't found any other sources to tell me that. Most just list the manual. Honestly, I didn't even know it came with an automatic option. All of the STs I have seen are manual and I figured most to all of them would be since the ST is so stripped down.

Well whatever, I still want to know what the REAL figure is out of curiosity.
