Don't forget about the impact of wheels. Porsche wheels are very heavy by design.

The CCWs I just picked up are strong, and they weigh 12-14lbs less per corner than the stock ones. You get double bang for your buck because you're removing unsprung weight which is also inertial. Big improvement!

My '00 S is 2960 with the CCWs on and about 5 gallons of fuel in the tank. With no exhaust and minimal fuel for competition it's closing in on 2900. Not light, but better than a lot of cars.
