Some of that 9 pounds is the under-body panels, which are now standard.

Was hoping for more info...but interesting on the weight gain. I wonder if the .4 seconds was due to conditions at the time of testing, or a difference in skills of the testers.

and the back up camera assembly.

9 lbs really isn't that much..... Don't eat a cheeseburger on track day.

2013 models just went up in value

HyperBlue value just went down.

I really want to see the kind of burgers you eat

I'm glad I went with the '13 lightweight model, instead of holding out for a '16.

Haha the 2013 lightweight model is the FR-S. 9lbs is nothing. The 0-60 time is probably within noise too.

I'm staring at my panels right now, maybe...I shouldn't install them.

Also, 9lbs, that's like 2 rear seats, and empty out the glove box.

Never mind the fact that we add over nine pounds in aftermarket goodies to the car...

Honestly 9 pounds doesn't mean much. 900 pounds...then you're talking some serious bloat.

Love all the haters in the comments section of that site...jeeze people on the internet are bitter :bellyroll:

Honestly don't mind about the value of my HyperBlue that much as I'm planning to keep it for a good while and sentimental value is really good for me :)
