lot's you can do to shave some lbs without gutting your interior...

aftermarket exhaust, dp's (I was surprised how heavy the stock pipes are), lightweight battery (HP Autowerks), carbon hood, racing seats, lightweight rims (just about anything is better than those heavy stock runflats)...

that's about all I can think of at the moment

Remove the roof and motors and only drive on sunny days? Then you'll be even lighter than a coupe.
