Reduced the weight to 2,700 lbs from 3,000 lbs and looking for ways to reduce it even further. Found this page where a guy got one down to 2,200 lbs. Photos 4
I may use some of the ideas but not go to some of the xtremes as I still use the seats but am looking into changing the seats out to lighter weight seats. I am averaging 33.6mpg right now with a 60% city travels and still have areas I can improve in aerodynamics. I got the alloy wheels for free and the weight reduction I have done so far was free. Don't have any money to spend or else I would have already done the other modifications.
