It just don't happen like that. I'm sticking with 2800lbs, if it's lighter than that we still win right...if it's heavier than that, it just lets me know there are a lot of metal brackets to gut from the car to get down to 24xxlbs with a cage and air jack system.
Just fyi....I still can shed another 60+lbs off of my tC by replacing the glass roof (confirmed 40lbs of weight) with a carbon roof and replacing the hatch with a carbon hatch.

I'm well aware of the sunroof weight, I have one and plan on ditching it too, but this car wont have a sunroof...? So I don't see your point. And replacing parts panels has nothing to do with gutting the interior.
I just want to know how you lost 350 lbs from the interior. And I have no doubt that cage weights as much or more than what they took out.
@Jay, you take out the glass roof, and weight it. Simple :P
Offtopic: dragon, have you heard anything good about the recaro speed? I was looking into getting a pair...
