There are 2 standard versions of the Spec C, the 16 inch and the 17 inch, Sams new car is based on a 17 inch with all the goodies.

The weights are as follows:-

16 inch 1320kg
17 inch 1350kg
ltd's 1370kg
std sti 1470kg

They still have a spare wheel, they have a different subframe, no soundproofing, no boot lining, a 50ltr fuel tank rather than a 60ltr tank, they do get a 12ltr water tank for the IC spray though in the boot, lighter glass etc.
