if you can drop your 60 fts to high 1.6s you may be able to knock off an 11.5...good luck man...

not that much really...you take your spare, jack and tools out already? Take your spoiler off (if its not already) and fold your mirrors in...sounds funny but the car will be more aerodynamic...haha...

If you remove the whole rear seat and seatbelt stuff i think its around 30lbs total...check out this thread...

The rear spoiler is really not that hard to take off to be honest...and folding in the mirrors does sound funny but if you look at a lot of the big dogs they take their mirrors off and/or put in those carbon fiber plates...

I removed my front passenger sea. I'm not sure what it weighs but it wasn't light at all It's easy to take out so it's definately worth the weight savings.
