Reminds me of the old Acura Integra Type R that was pretty much a street legal track car, stripped. of any "unnecessary" weight: power windows, door lock, cushioned seats...

Take out the ac

 

[SupraBC]

So basically a 2.0 interior

 

[kaiv]

The Euro version is also light on horsepower

 

[Thraxbert]

I'm sure this is regulatory or cost structure-related being marketed as "lightweight" lmao.

 

[METAL]

Considering I only need to adjust my seat once and I replaced the sound system, this version would have been good.

 

[puzzled]

So if your supplier can't deliver parts, just remove all of the features and sell it as the Lightweight Edition!

Plus we have a particle filter in our exhaust and these are heavy. There is no way the european version is lighter than the international models, electric leather seats or not.

I do get that it may be a supply issue that they called it "lightweight" but if i was on the market for a manual i would take that.Never liked leather seats ,never cared for the sound system,just put some alcantara GR Recaro seats as an option and it will be perfect and lighter!!

most 2.0 have the jbl steereo unless you special order without it and then lose all the other options too.

2.0 seats dont move electrically but still have electric lumbar and bolster adjustment


"power adjustment and lumbar support are deleted" so I think these are unique seats

Oh yeah, I forgot the Canadian and US markets are different also in stuff like this.

There's only one 2.0 trim in Canada and we don't get lumbar support or JBL system, tho we get heated seats and all the fancy safety tech standard ?‍

If this lightweight model been out in the US at launch it would have been the tuners choice, though ironically they would charge more for less haha.

Nothing can be heavier than my FI exhaust lmao

I want to see how hard they push the "lightweight" edition. Can they talk people into paying the same as a std 3.0. Just include the CF mirror caps, and i bet they can. Why not give them an option to remove the passenger seat, no carpeting or sound proofing, and a "raw" finish to save on paint weight?
