Hood, seats, interior, wheels, swap suspension parts for aluminum stuff, accesories in the engine compartment, stereo, A/C, heat, you can strip a lot from a car a still have it streetable. My first mod was replacing the 150 lb front seats with 27 lb Corbeau racing seats

sorry, forgot to mention this. MMR has rear seat delete, ac delete, bilet aluminum flywheel, and while its not a weight saver, an electric water pump frees up some power. completely different topic. i know.

well yeah, a/c is a nice thing to have. you can keep your heat without a/c, and isnt it always cooler to role with the windows down? okay, maybe not. but it looks so suave. its hard to determine the line between daily driver, and road course racer. you need to make sacrifices in one or the other to accomplish your goal. the rear seat saves you closer to 40lbs than the afformentioned 10 - 20 lbs. its worth it. and if you have leather, you can preserve the seats for another 20 years. and rims can save you up to 65 lbs. so right there, your curb weight rivals a much lighter v6 car.
