Default What would a car reaistically weigh with these mods?

With the following items removed:
A/C -30
Airbags -15
F Bumper -23
R Bumper -21
Lightweight carpet -15
Crossmember brace -4
EGR, AIR -10
Floormats -4
hatch cover -2
Upper PHB -5
power steering (manual rack) -10
Duals instead of Y-pipe & catback -20
Rear Seatbelts -6
Spare and jack -35
F swaybar + brackets -14
washer fluid -5


hood -15
dynabat -20
k member/ a arms -35
skinnies/slicks -50

TOTAL -339lb

What would an average car weigh with the above removed, but with a 9" that adds 40lbs. Assume 250lb driver. (I know, I know, a few less cookies for me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> )

Could I get it to 3300 w/driver? How about 3200?

I have seen the weight reduction list, but am curious what you guys that weigh 3200 lbs actually have removed? Thanks, Shawn
