seeing as the s2k came in at that weight with a power folding top I can see the FT86 hittin the target weight of 2700ish no problem
I was under the impression that since the S2000 was never built with a roof in mind, that did not apply. And also there is only a 100lb difference between an S13 coupe and an S13 convertible even though the vert has an auto transmission and the coupe has a 5 speed.
