Lots when it smacks you on the back of the head, especially with a spoiler adding to the weight.

I'm not sure on the actual weight but the boot lid certainly isn't light, probably around 18kg.

Could have sworn it was heavier...but then I suppose being klonked on the back of the head by ~10kg will do that. :P
