That's weight with no gas in the car. So figure a gallon of gas weighs 6-7lbs and our Civics hold 12 gallons + your weight - the mods on your car (whether they be lighter or heavier).

My car stock is 2612lbs. With my mods now it weighs 2500lbs with 1/8 tank of gas. With me in it it weighs 2700lbs. Then add in more gas and spare and jack.
