The title of this thread is "Weight of G80 M3 Competition w/ auto and standard seats = 3767 lbs". So I'm here to talk about weight. Track times are a different story. Again, you aren't willing to understand that a lighter G80 is going to perform better than a heavier G80 all other things being equal. I'm not sure why you want to ignore physics.
I reserve the right to change my mind once more track times are set. I also still have a free M School voucher so hopefully I'll be able to track a G80 on BMW's dime and tires.
For now though, it's too heavy and my goal with my next weekend/track toy was to go lighter.
One advantage I have is that I didn't order a G80 and my choices are open to other cars and brands, so I don't HAVE TO love the G80 to justify my decision. I've had multiple M cars, so I don't have to get this one. The M2 is still a consideration, but so is a Zupra, GT4, F82, E46, 718 GTS, etc... At least I can be honest to myself.
