Default unless its a scale certified for public tare there always is. Thats why I ALWAYS...

have them measure something of a "known weight" like me before measuring my car. Then I can interpolate any error.

Default Good point.

I never care so much for actual weight shown but rather try to measure (myself in this case) on a same scale so I know the difference gained/lost is acurate.

I'll have to weigh the Coupe when it rolls out of garage in few weeks. I'm curious now.

Default Hmm... how to weigh a B3...

when its sitting in the garage with no suspension, awaiting an AAN swap, and expecting a full rally cage.

Man I need some scales!

Default Meh...I though they had huge gas prices in CA....seems like Chicago is the worst. $4.20 for 93.

Few years ago you could almost buy a gallon of 104 octane for that much!
