I would imagine any base model would have the fewest options and thus less weight.

Well I have a S5 GTU and I have no moonroof, no power locks, no power windows and no adjustable suspension.

I don't really know what the others came with though.

It'd probably be the GTUs, IMO

(GTUs, NOT GTU, 2 different cars)
