The mass or, to be less precise, the weight.

Weight depends on gravity and is properly measured in kilograms-force, or pounds-force, although we generally do not make the distinction. However mass does not depend on gravity and is measured in kilograms or pounds. Unless you are being really accurate, or are on another planet, the two numbers are the same. If a car weighs 1000 kgf on the surface of the Earth, then it has a mass of 1000 kg.
