I don't know any mass produced car as light as 500kg. Even the mark 1 Citroen AX was over 600kg.

You can get a 101 BHP smart but it weighs over 800kg.

There was a special edition of last of the old ForTwos. It had the 101 BHP brabus tuned engine from the Brabus Roadster.

The other way to do it was to get a roadster turbo plus a sports exhaust and fit them to a ForTwo, then get the 101 BHP map for the ECU.

What about a modern Elise? In 1996 it originally had 118bhp, weighed about 675kg and is 3717mm long and 1740mm wide, and it has two seats...
