Yep, you answered your own question: power/weight. |
Probably worth adding the rear tires didn't get any wider/stickier so the there are still going to be similar traction limits.
And the base M3 still has the same torque rating as the previous gen which matters a lot more off the line
Add that onto the 200lb gain and you end up balancing out the increased horsepower for the base models
FYI for whomever was looking for it bmw rates the M340 rwd at 4.4 0-60
