Default Do you doubt that S5 weighs 1720 lbs? Seems plausible...

if they weigh the chassis before assembly.

Me thinks that should read 1720 kg (or 3792 lbs).

Default Unfortunately, according to the same sheet, it gets 0 mpg...

...which may make sense, given the 4163<b>L</b> of engine displacement. Of course, that displacement comes in handy when attempting to reach the S5's top speed of 250 mph.
