The Spoon triplets in the latest Modified Mag was a VERY entertaining as well. Absolutely amazing tuning inside and out.

The use CF parts and a lighter Intake, Exhaust, Header, Mirrors, Steering wheel they also usually take out luxury items like AC, Cruise Control, Powersteering, Sound deadening material I probably missed some things, but that pretty much somes it up

remember the Magazines tend too exagerate things too, I am sure their car is lighter than stock but the weight may be an estimate not an actual figure.

soft top motor, crap in the trunk (spare tire, tools, carpet?). possibly lighter seats and certainly wheels
