haha its heavier than a 1.6 NA dude, and they dont weight 1900lbs. most likely (without hardtop) you are sitting at high 2000+. bone stoke it weighs around 2070(940kg) with a 1.6 wet....so give or take another 30-40 lbs for the 1.8 and the R options. plus the fact in 1994 they were produced with dual front airbags, and the Chassis was substantially braced most obvious in the front and rear subframe areas to meet new side-impact standards, plus the roll bar. still a very light car though, not doubting that. i say this because my friend Kevins 94 GRM car fully stripped w/1.8 turbo still weighs almost 2000lbs and his is gutted of everything. no a/c, PS, windows, no top, stripped trunk, lighter wheels, battery, no sound deadining...blah blah. the official weigh in put him at 1958lbs with half tank of gas
...so still lighter than a mr2 will ever get lol.
