LOL. REPU will never be a mini truck. It is a pick up truck. Something easy to get around in, if you have it running though. It can haul enough stuff you need to haul. REPU's are so bad ***. I can't wait to see Dave's truck start getting dismantled. I wanna get one real bad and just put a 13b 6-port with just header and exhaust and air intake. Screw going turbo on that thing. The repu was I think the 2nd lightest vehicle mazda made. Evar!

Are you sure?



FB's are 2300lbs stock, RX3's are 2100 and im sure rx2s are even lighter than that! What about 323s?



How light is a repu really?

It goes RX3 Coupe, 808 Wagon, and then the REPU I believe. Not in that particular order though.



Are all FB's 2300 lbs stock though, or would that be the weight of the base models? I saw it on a website somewheres. I forget the address.

peejay was saying that after the DEALER installed AC etc of the 12A cars, that they come close to the GSL-SE in weight. The best way to tell your car's weight is to weigh it.



I have yet to weigh the REPU on an accurate scale. So far I've only weighed it at the dump for a before and after comparison charge. It's been 3,040-3,080 after dumping the payload. That's a bit more than 2700.
