Yeah, the G-50 trans, additional electronic stuff and probably thicker torsion bars probably to handle the extra weight.
I think Butzip's comments are right on the mark.

Lot's of bling. Just weighed my 81sc with me in it. 2655# on a DOT scale, 1/4 tank.
Been pulling off everything I can from it.

My old cabriolet 1987 was 2860 lbs - with a full tank - and a bolt in roll bar - there goes your facts
