Let's be honest, you're in the vast minority of super-mega hardcore people that aren't worrying about being comfortable or getting laid. It sounds more like you're looking for an Ariel Atom, Lotus 2-Eleven, Radical, or shifter kart, not a road car with a heavy license plate and headlights.

My preferences, aside from the lightweight roof, are more about minimalism than weight savings. I'm all for comfort too - makes it easier to enjoy the drive. I just want the cheapest starting point possible so I can spend more on personalization.
