Yeah, Cory and Chris kinda missed the point.

Actually a first gen G would be great for a track *****.

Besides being already lighter than the coupe, early Gs can be had for pretty cheap. And if you find an absolute bottom of the line, no-options, base model, they're the lightest (cloth seats, light mechanical passenger and driver seat, and no sunroof)

Plus, I think a sedan could actually stand to lose even more weight than a coupe if stripped (it has 4 window motors/door panels/etc as opposed to 2, the stock exhaust is a LOT heaver, etc...)




Dang it... now I want a 2nd sedan to strip down and beat up on a track

theoretically ya you should be able to get it a bit lighter cause a lot of the coupe weight is in the sides for extra bracing. hell just use 2 shells for the rear doors and tear everything but the seats, wheel and dash from the interior...
