Ye i think its just been specced without some of the extras, known as a lightweight, Check my build thread or stokes, we have racebases with no tints and ej9 interiors
Are they really "lightweight" ones or is it just what people call them. Iv always thought it was just that when they were bought new the person buying didn't pay the extra for the electric windows or abs etc...
That's what I called mine lol poverty spec with keep fit windows etc
Yeah people call them lightweights but it's exactly as you put, tight first owner didn't want to pay for the extras.
I had a poverty spec ek9 / lightweight / cheap mans version - aka windy windows, no aircon, no abs, no airbags, no electric folding wing mirrors (but electric moving mirrors). Certainly preferred it over the Rx versions. Nicer momo steering wheel and lighter for the track. Only time windy windows were annoying is when people are trying to be clever dicks by going to the passenger window on purpose
I have seen both light weight and Motorsport version with factory tinted windows. I would say light weight with optional windows.
Most light weight have AC.
Dunx
The onlu things mine doesn't have are leccy windows, abs and folding mirrors (unsure about airbags) Thats why im not sure if its a highly specced racebase or normal one with a few bits less.
Maybe they all start life as race bases and people spec them how they want? Appart from the rx of course
