I stuck the car on the work shipping scale, as she currently sits (only driver seat, no headliner or pillar covers, CF roof, Lithium Ion battery, stock drivers seat.

3062 lbs! (1/3 tank gas, no driver)

I'm pretty psyched. With some light weight seats, I think she'll be under 3100 lbs with full interior/back seats back in.

I am running out of places to take weight out of it, though (not willing to ruin civility or functionality)-- pretty much all I have left is front seats and cf driveshaft. I don't think I'll be making it under 3000.

A light weight muffler (SS street is nearly stock weight) and back seat delete would put me to right ~3000. But, no.
