Default Help with options?

Hi guys, looking to pick up a year old 5.0 Mustang. I primarily want the car for track days, so a lot of the options I'm seeing aren't really necessary for me, and I could use that extra money to swap out suspension or for good tires. Also, I'm wondering what the weight is on some of the options, mainly the leather in the Premium GT package. Does anyone know of a site that has the info for these things? For example, I really like the power seats and leather, but if is adding like 200lbs to the car, I'd rather have it without and save the $3k on the price. Also the Brembos, is that an easy add on later, or should I get them on it when I get the car? I'm looking for a used one, and trying to stay under $27k. Thanks in advance, I'm sure that you all can shed some light on the good overall packages to get with the vehicle.

I'd say get the base GT with the Brembo package if all you want is a track car. Or, a premium GT with the Brembo package that will cost a little more. I don't think the premium adds any significant weight, but I could be wrong.
