Some notes & quotes:

This is Episode 1 of the series, focused on Performance & Weight.

Quotes:

- "the new cars will exceed all [performance] expectations"
- "the M4 is a lot faster than its predecessor"
- "and with cup tires in part faster than the legendary BMW M4 GTS"
- "stiffened the bodywok locally both at the front and the rear" and these "measures represent a good weight investment"
- "crankshaft [weight reduced by] 1.5kg which is in turn reflected in the response"
- "M carbon bucket seats [...] 10kg less than the M Sports seats [for the pair]"
- "Reduced the sound insulation to a minimum"

Now we need to know the weight increase of ZF8 vs. Manual so we can compare the G82 Competition weight vs. F82 Competition weight (like-for-like).
