Things I haven't heard about, is this really correct??????? I know this has been beaten to death. So I was a bit surprised seeing this list:

Stand outs:

Different transmission ratios (final drive 3,620: vs 3.89:1)
Thinner fuel tank walls
Smaller capacity fuel tank
Sports brake linings
Ball instead of rubber bearings (uniball joints) (uh, where??)
Extra thin glass on side windows
Aluminum engine compartment (uhh, what??)
Thinner steel body panels (really, no!!??)
Lightweight dash top
