What is the exact trim package, options, etc...

I don't think you'll get close to any actual number short of parking it on some scales.

3200 GT
3100 LX
3000 notch

generally coupes weigh 75-100 lbs less than hatchbacks, lx hatchbacks weigh about 50 lbs less than GTs, and verts are just bloated pigs...they're about 150 lbs heavier than GTs.

My 91 GT was 3300 and some change (with me in it) with aftermarket wheels on it and everything else being stock. My 90 notchback was 3062 (with me in it) with an 8.2 deck motor, aluminum heads, no efi, lightweight wheels, aluminum radiator and some other minor weight reductions.

That is all of the first hand information I have to offer.

-the back seat of my hatch with brackets and seatbelts weighed about 25 lbs.
-the sound deadener (everything past the front seats) was about 15 lbs.
-the spare tire and jack were 35-40 lbs.
-the axle damper was about 10 lbs.
-the console arm rest was 8 lbs.
-the foglight brace (only the horizontal one, not the brackets themselves) was 10 lbs.
-the AC (everything except the under dash components) was about 25 lbs.
