I quit after the "shave an ounce of weight" line...

My old 911S has a curb weight of 2,440 pounds. The '73S was a bit heavier because of crash beams in the doors, but the '72 and '73 models were the heaviest of the longnose models.

What's the weight of the lightest P-car made today?

Since no one answered, and you were (apparently) too lazy to look yourself...

The standard Cayman is only 2866 pounds. That's with 245/201 HP/torque engine that pulls 20/29 MPG. Light enough?
