I have two other nominations lined up (one I've been holding off on since February). But then this came up in the Automotive Guilty Pleasures thread and, shockingly, it doesn't appear to have been nominated. So knowing that, there is absolutely no way I can just leave it.

By the way, @Jahgee1124, my nomination is not in the OP but you already recorded two nominations after mine. Was there something wrong about it, or did you simply just forget about it?

Just a heads-up.

Is it that big of a deal? Weight isn't the easiest statistic to find.
No, but some of the cars that have been posted without it are cars that are popular enough to have specs for weight. I've found weight for a bunch of nominations easily when making OPs for them. If you can't find any specification, just type "Unknown" so @Jahgee1124 and I know you're not ignoring it.
