What are the actual weights of the Evora and Aero - as opposed to manufacturer claimed in different states. I would expect GRP bodywork to be heavier than ally but a BMW V8 to be heavier than a Toyota V6. So I would have thought the real world weights to be similar.

I haven't weighed either car, but the Evora is circa 1400 kg and the Aero 1200kg (similar weight to a 350 Exige).
