    Without a transmission oil cooler, you can pull up to 2000 lbs. Add the cooler and it goes up to 3500.

    On the top of the car, around 200 lbs.

    On the back of the car, with a proper installed hauling devices, around 1200 - 2000 lbs. But you will need to make sure your car still 'new' to get out around 160 hps to tow such weight.

    It is 2000lbs . I have towed much more in city speeds, like 4500lbs and its fine. Towing capacity is there so that you can pull that weight at highway speeds, and not even feel the load on the car.
