I've realized I never turn on the AC, can it be removed like an appenix?

If youre going to continue to harass me across threads I hope youre prepared to put your money where your mouth is, lets make a friendly bet. Come down to az for 7 days, we'll drive anywhere anytime anyhow you want, and I will not turn the AC on (if you get dehydrated I'll drop you off at the hospital). If I win by not turning the AC on through the duratiob you owe me 4 tires, if you win and I do turn the AC on even once I owe you 2 tires. Seems like fair odds wouldnt you say?

The weight savings is about the same as a few gallons of gas. Not worth it on car that isn’t a lightweight in the first place.
If you live in a place where you don’t ever need the AC, go you, but deleting the AC is one of the few things that you can do to a 911 that will obliterate resale. Race car? Sure, knock yourself out, but deleting it on a street car is dumb, especially so, where buyers are looking for a level of luxury.

Saving weight by removing components on a street car seems ridiculous. Most people could stand to pull some weight off their bodies which would be a better solution anyway. I once met a guy that was pulling the rear seats out of a 4000lb mustang to save weight and he was at least 275lbs. I was baffled by that logic.

Go cry about it in your closet lol, this is a real question. Not my fault you're unable to roll the top down in your coupe. If you have nothing of value to contribute please dont spam the thread with your garbage. Thanks.

My priorities are probably a bit different than others, I drive my car fast and the seats are luxurious enough for me - these are training wheels for my next step up, which if everything goes well will be a 2RS in the future. Thanks for clarifying. I think on my current car, since it'll only be worth a few gallons of gas it might not be worth the hassle, thanks. (I already drive with minimum reasonable amt of gas, usually around 6 gallons, just considering other ways to reduce weight, I'll make this a lower priority, probably near the bottom for now.)
I'm 6 feet tall and weigh about 150 pounds - already removed part of my kidney this summer due to a little bit of kidney cancer. Not much more weight reduction to be done unless you know of any useless organs. (Though im sure some more cancer followed by robot surgery will push the limit further if that happens,![rockon](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/rockon.gif)

Not really trolling, I not only live here I was born here. Heat doesnt bother me. Deal with it, or go cry about it somewhere else.

So, I gather you drive a cab...that is ~154 pounds heavier to start with compared to an identical coupe and all that weight is on top.....and you only put 6 gallon of gas in as you try to save weight to drive fast ...and you worry about weight of an AC. Sounds to me you bought the wrong car - buy a coupe with AC and you you are lighter and better suited to drive fast/race.

Hello Shrimp Money,
Sometimes you just have to consider the source and ignore the idiots/trolls. From reading his post he’s had his car for two years and he’s just now joining the forum his month? With 70 plus post. 🤔
Here is a quote from one of his post
“Noticed today a certain youtubers GT3 was "crashed into" at an area well known for dangerous driving (example people driving on the wrong side of the road as he experienced)
Out of curiosity, how many other people are regularly driving dangerous sections while driving poorly? (Only saying that because if what happened to him is a "well known" occurance at that specific area...why take no precautions and instead take actions that may lead to an accident lol. Definition of poor driving imho). End quote
He lives in Az. Born and raised there (according to him) and he is knowledgeable about the roads in NC.?? quote….” if what happened to him is a "well known" occurance at that specific area.” End quote
I guess he doesn’t know Adam is professional driver, and insinuates that he drives dangerously and poorly… Lol.
Some people are just wannabes.

I bought the right car, thanks for your concern. When I bought my car I walked in to a showroom, looked at all the available cars, including coupes, decided I didnt want them, looked at all incoming inventory within the next few weeks, including coupes, and picked the car I wanted. Just because I'm interested in modifications or understanding how to push my car past factory limits doesnt mean its the wrong car. Can you tell me which other 992 models that were rear wheel drive, turbocharged, and convertible in 2020? (Carrera, S cab) Can you tell me which GT/RS cars are convetible? (None). If I have a GT2RS in the future, owning any other porsche coupe is a waste of money in my opinion. Owning a porsche cab in addition to a 2RS is conversely not only reasonable but checks as many of my boxes as possible, without needing multiple of the same body style.
