But the huge weight increase. WTF??? Did they even try to reduce weight? Where is it coming from? Why does the RWD weigh so much?? At least F8X generation they could say they were less than E9X. But this is too much.
No CFRP brace, no CFRP trunk(presumably), no CFRP driveshaft, steel everywhere, you name more. They cancelled DCT because of cost, easy to assume they spent ZERO effort on weight reduction. What a shame.
