Do you have any idea how much heated power leather seats, sound deadening, air conditioning, power windows, etc weighs? The Elise/Exige is lightweight, but has the refinement of a go-kart. Without spending a fortune on exotic materials, it's damn near impossible to have both comfort and light weight. Even modern exotics are heavy by the standards of 20 years ago.
