By marginally do you mean several hundred pounds? Who has ever said that the GT-R is a car to judge lightness by?! It’s heavy as fuck and I can't stand that aspect of it!

Oh, and thanks to Road & Track we have an actual weight of the Veyron instead of the fibs that come from VW,

Curb Wt: 4470lb / 2032kg
Test Wt: 4655lb / 2116kg

(http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/d...ugatti.pdf.pdf)

No doubt we will learn the true weight of the GT-R soon enough when Road & Track tests it as well, but for now, using some hack math I'm guessing it will be:

3800lb + 220lb= Curb Wt: 4020lb + 170lb driver= Actual Wt: 4190lb, still nearly 500lb lighter than the Veyron (and based completely on guessing), which isn't inconsequential.
