C7s are pretty customizable. MT, R&T etc are not going to use the bare bones cars(keeping in mind a bare bones care is still far more advanced and loaded than most fully loaded cars), in test comparisons.
"GM lists the base Stingray at 3,298 pounds, 90 pounds more than last years model." Automobile magazine September 2013.
Also keep in mind that his Garner's car is still on stock suspension IIRC. Going from a stock Corvette to a stock Mustang absolutely feels like you're in captaining a boat. My C5 was planted at all times. Getting in the Mustang with stock tires, etc was definitely a sketchy experience especially over broken pavement. It's definitely much better now though
