Buyers want all the luxuries, bells, whistles, and comfort...all while turning out highly competitive Nurburgring times. They don't want a car that lacks comfort, noise insulation, highly sophisticated electronics, dampening, ect. GT cars.
They want a car that can do it all. Mature and full size all while being capable as hell. They stuff massively powerful engines in there.
Go get groceries, bomb the highway, take a road trip, hit the track without fatiguing you too much.
M2 (or the supra) takes the place of the previous gen M3 cars that has a bit more sports car nimble feel

3800 lbs 992? You mean the Targa 4S which is the heaviest at 3700 lbs is awd we are talking about a complicated targa model. . 992 S Coupes weigh3200-3300lbs. 992 4S is 3487 and awd - Turbo S is 3600lbs and awd
M3/M4 is a pig 3890 and awd will be 4100 lbs
So the m4 awd will weigh 500 lbs more than a 992 Turbo S and 613 lbs more than the 992 4s
Point is the weight gain for this gen is outrageous
