Well I have had my 94 celica gt automatic coupe and I am trying to do some research to learn more about it. Well on how stuff works.com it lists... Verts at 2755 bs Coupes at 2395lbs and Hatchbacks at 2415lbs. These weights seem very light compared to other similar cars, but it is good for performace. Anyways I assume these weights are with the 1.8 engine so they are lighter than mine. Does anyone have the real numbers.

They weight about 1350kg with a tank of petrol. The GT4 would weigh more because of the extra running gear but it does have an aluminum bonnet and roof to bring it back down a bit.
I decided to put mine on a bit of a diet so got light weight Enkeis (6.5kg each) and removed the Air Con. The air con bits weighed 13kgs plus it leachs power from the engine so no loss when you live in Ireland. --------------------  |

I live in the perfect place where it's over 100 degrees Farenheit in the summer and can easily get down to around 0 win the winter. So uh... I gotta keep my AC  But I have wanted to take my rear seats and spare tire out for a while. Anyone have any idea what kind of weight savings that is???
