I actually got the impression that weight was a big factor and that weight reduction measures was important also for this model. Considering how it has grown in size it was quite impressive that you can get a version only 34kg heavier than a F82.
You misunderstood that part since here I was vague reading it again. That was meant for the overall G8X strategy. Performance efforts trumps minimum weight efforts.

However a 125 lbs generational increase comp. to comp. is IMO still a good effort and should ease the mind of a few dooms day members talking 250 lbs plus increase.
Agreed on the weight increase. Kind of back to E9x weights in a larger car with loads more mandatory safety equipment and more advanced ICE.
