xproductionz is just really nicexproductionz is just really nicexproductionz is just really nicexproductionz is just really nice
heres the curb weights for each
coupe trim: mt/at
VP 2456 / 2513
HX 2441 / 2522
LX 2538 / 2588
EX 2597 / 2657
GX 2685

hybrid trim:
CVT 2736 / 2749
MT 2675 / 2684

sedan trim:
DX 2449/NA
VP NA/2544
LX 2560/2606
EX 2612/2668


Si 2782(MT ONLY)


so to answer yr question
a coupe ex MT weighs 2597
a sedan ex MT weighs 2612
so the difference is only 15lbs
if comparing the coupe and sedan in the same trim the only difference is only a few pounds give or take

but if u wanna know the lightest then that would be the
coupe hx 2441(MT)

believe it or not the SI is the heaviset which comes in at 2782

thats a difference of 341lbs

the heaviest sedan weighs in at 2668 which is still 114lbs lighter..

Not that the wing or lowering has any thing to do with it, but I think the home made intake hurts his performance. You on the other hang have all good mods, but ur only downside is an auto. I think he will be better off the line and be able to shift faster so I think he would win....IMO But still just race hime for fun
