Default Weight question.

ok i did a search and i foudn that the CX hatch weighs 2094 and the Si hatch weighs 2326. And now my questions is why does the Si hatch weigh more. I know because the gas tank is bigger but why does it weigh more and what can i do to lose some pounds off the car......thanx

ANything that is different from the CX is more weight.

Power windows. Power mirrors. I mean anything that is different adds weight. The sunroof alone is about 40 lbs. (brackets included)

I'm not sure if the 92-95 SI comes with power windows.

dude, its not that big a deal

buy whatever car you want and take out whatever YOU DONT NEED.

Personally I would get the CX and not have to worry about taking stuff out. Then buy a dohc swap and call it a day.
