yes it most definitely does...strip your out and feel how much all the crap wighs...
one of the biggest gains must be the seats...
theres also alll the interior plastic and theres a lot..
sound deading fookin loads of it too.

Was considering the stripped out caged up look... saves me carrying my fat mate about too if there's no-where for him to sit

hell of alot of difference, car feels more responsive round corners & also on the throttle
lost just over 100kg when stripping mine down, just shows how much dead-weight there is!

probably a load of rust matt-h finally came to getting his sound deadening up & the rear suspension turrets were all rusted to hell
after that & other things I definately never will install sound-deadedning again as it traps too much moisture!
but I did find £12 in change & also 2 keys which I dont know what they are from under the carpet
