Well the MY02-07 WRX STI roof panel comes in at around 26-30lbs. Id imagine that the BRZ with much less surface area and overall lighter materials used during manufacturing to keep the weight down, will come in at 18-20lbs.
If a quality carbon roof is produced, it would need to be 4.5-6lbs to make a real difference in actual performance. We really want to ideally aim to shave 25% of the weight on the roof.
