I look at the GVW of my car and it was 3495 lbs! That is way too heavy for a small car like that. So.... I was wondering what the best way to free up some weight would be without sacrificing too much.

EDIT: I JUST GOT MY FIRST BAR!!! YAY!!! *clears throat* anyways.... thanks for the help.

My opinion on weight... pointless in a daily driven car... useful if you run track frequently... nice to lose if it's excessivly covering your body (you)...
