After looking it up, it looks like they changed the material of the car. Now, they are using some type of sheet metal, and not steel.

Thing is, the car is a little over 1,000lbs lighter.. With a 30% weight reduction, wouldn't the car be much faster than older models? According to VW, its not..
 
Which car are you talking about?

I'm comparing what it says on VW's site (3,034 lbs for the 2 door) and what my friends gti says on the door (almost 4200lbs)

4100lb is not possible for that small car...

what you are looking at on the doorjam is probably the Maximum Gross Vehicle Weight.. meaning the most weight that car can take.
