You can add probably about 250 lbs in just safety equipment to that 2000 Accord if it were built today. The 350Z had to go up 150 lbs in 2006 due to new safety requirements and Nissan claims they added something like an extra 100 lbs of safety equpment between the 350Z and the 370Z (it's why about 1/2 the weight savings in the new design was lost).
