It has more power but basically the same engine, pretty much the same car as the M4CSL with a lighter gearbox and given all the CF around it, should this car not be at least 50 or more kg lighter than the CSL? It weighs as much as the M4CSL, so what accounts for the extra weight?
All that tacked on body cladding.

While the cladding is made of lightweight material, it still is added weight. And the weight difference between MT and 8AT is more in the 23kg range.
