Miata for lighweight with even the third gen sitting at only 2500...
Yea the 718 GT4 is around 3100-3200 depending on options. About 30 lbs of that is the new OPF filters fitted into the OEM over axel pipes.

The e36/e46 were never very light cars, and the e92 and f8x have hit the scales in some specs close to 3700 lbs. The M2 certainly is quite heavy despite a relatively small footprint at 3500-36XX lbs depending on spec - again, a good amount of that weight is likely new safety, wider wheels/tires.

Yea the Miata isnt quite as light as it once was. Even the Alfa 4C is about 2300-2400 in the US while in the EU is under 2K lbs.
