This is all speculation...

And random at best. "Our source says"

If it gets to sub 3500lbs I would be amazed(base v8 model)
I was blown away at the GT86 being 2,700lbs~

With todays safety standards and all the features cars require to make them appealing weight will continue to be a problem.
I thought they said the same shit before the new corvette came out and yet turns out it weighs 100lbs~ more than the c6.

There are guys with current mustangs down around 3000 lbs. Granted that includes a fully stripped interior, there is a lot you can do to lose weight but it involves more money. You can drop a good bit of weight just from a new drive shaft. Replacing the heavy exhaust manifolds with some nice headers helps too. Same with mufflers. Its all small weight but it adds up pretty fast.
