Model Weights:

(These weights are vague imo because they don't specify options such as PS/ABS/CC/ which can be a 75 lb difference.

91 T-Top N/A 5 spd MT - 2695
91 T-Top N/A Auto - 2775
91 T-Top Turbo - 2845

91 Hardtop N/A 5 spd MT - 2705
91 Hardtop N/A Auto - 2765
91 HardTop Turbo - 2860

(Yes I know they are saying the hardtop weighs more, this is why I think this weight listing is inaccurate)

Then there is the 91 toyota brochure:

91 N/A Hardtop 5 spd - 2,599
91 N/A T-ttop 5 spd - 2,626
91 N/A T-top Auto - 2,672

91 Turbo Hardtop 5 spd - 2,758
91 Turbo T-top 5 spd - 2,782

These weights seem much more accurate as MANY stock hardtop n/a mr2s with a lightweight exhaust, no PS/ABS/CC weigh between 2450-2500 (SCCA E-Stock MR2s) so this make sense with the options accounting for around 75 lbs of options and gas as well.
