How much weight can be stripped from a modern 911 and it still pass federal safety standards? What percentage of total starting weight is it?
I've stripped hundreds of pounds from my car and can say it is likely still just as safe as it was on day one....maybe even safer. Did I strip out 10% or 15% or is the number approaching 20%?
Could Porsche successfully sell a modern 911 with the same percentage of creature comforts and styling stripped out of it, call it a Clubsport, charge more for it, and address Jack's dilemma? Make a car that while it may be bigger and safer...is also lighter and therefor able to keep up with Jack around Willow??? Would people buy it?
Some would....
