Tim and I got into a conversation about this today, and I thought I'd do a bit of research and put together a list.

Fortunately someone already did it for me!

1. Smart Fortwo Coupe / Cabrio
   Weight: 820 kg — 840 kg ( 1,807—1,851 lbs.)
   .
2. Lotus Elise
   Weight: 899 kg (1,984 lbs)
   .
3. Lotus Exige
   Weight: 942 kg (2,077 lbs)
   .
4. Mazda2
   Weight: 1,045 kg (2,306 lbs)
   .
5. Toyota Yaris Hatch / Sedan
   Weight: 1,049 kg (2,313 lbs)
   .
6. Hyundai Accent Sedan
   Weight: 1,072 kg (2,365 lbs)
   .
7. Mazda MX-5
   Weight: 1,115 kg (2,458 lbs)
   .
8. Honda Fit
   Weight: 1,119 kg (2,466 lbs)
   .
9. Hyundai Accent Hatchback

   .
10. Nissan Versa Sedan

Honourable mention:

Chevrolet Aveo / Suzuki Swift+ hatchback 1,155 kg (2,546 lbs)
Kia Rio Sedan 1,160 kg (2,557 lbs)
MINI Cooper 1,165 kg (2,568 lbs)
Civic Coupe 1,179 kg (2,599 lbs)
Tesla Roadster 1,238 kg (2,729 lbs)

Now these are Canadian specs, so they may not perfectly match the USA figures. Also, I didn't double check them against manufacturer's info.
