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!

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?

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.
