Prepare to be disappointed. I am hugely excited about the prospect of a small, stiff coupe with low weight and low MOI, but with contemporary safety standards, 1300kg (~2600lbs) is the lowest I can imagine the weight would be.
1300 kg = 2866 lbs

1200 kg = 2646 lbs

I'm a realist; no way in the world will it be 2600 lbs.
