A 200SX IS NOT lighter.

George Perinis had a 200SX SE-R that was virtually identical to my Sentra
SE-R as far options (sunroof, AC ...), and a couple years ago we weighed our
cars on the same set of Longacre scales in the same garage.  His 200SX SE-R
with him in it weighed 2690.  My Sentra SE-R with me in it weighed 2690,
too, but I also had about 1/4 tank more gas and I weigh about 15-20 pounds
more.

200SX SE-R w. 180-lb driver, 1/4-tank gas: 2,690
Sentra SE-R w. 195(ish)-lb driver, 1/2 tank gas: 2,690.
