I managed to take off 55 Pounds by just removing my fat. This modification greatly improved body roll because now the seats actually hold me in, lmao!!

My weight loss suggestions:
1. Direct-port helium injection (so your engine will weigh less)
2. Anorexic driver (or better yet have the car drive itself)
3. Replace everything with plastic (you're already halfway there)
4. Take out the engine (even with helium it's still too heavy)
5. Saw the car down the b-pillar line and then across to the bottom of the hatch
6. Remove the seats (real men stand when they drive)
7. Install helicopter rotors
8. Remove exhaust and let the carbon dioxide find it's own way out
9. Replace the motor oil with alcohol (because it's less dense)

I am sorry guys, but I have to laugh at this. I love the tC. I think it's an awesome, sporty car... but you are never going to get below 2500 lbs. without spending OVER 9000 dollars on it. you are better off building a car from a 1986 mustang gt for $4000, replacing the engine with a V8 from the newer stangs, adding a custom turbo, and replacing the heavy steel with alloys. it will go 5x faster for the price.
