Weight affects all areas of performance - Handling, Acceleration, Braking, MPG, wear and tear on parts and feel.
What I did was only the beginning as Ive only had this car for 3 months. Still will lose weight with front brakes - 32lbs, Lithium Battery 25lbs, CF driveshaft - 10lbs, rear beam 10lbs, Rear seat delete 20lbs. Another 100lbs of precious weight lost right there without hurting stock drive ability and still have AC for cold days.
