My M3 CS weighs 1,588 kilos (correct?), so my increase will be 86 kilos (or 189.2 pounds). That correct? Just want to make sure I am doing the same apples to apples comparison.

It certainly will hurt their initial sales out of the gate among the people who pay attention to such things.

As for a G8X, it's all speculation. We don't know how the car in the OP is specced. Specced equivalently, you already need to assume +5kg for the G80 over the G82, so 1,679kg. So we can estimate your G80 to be ~35kg/80lb heavier than your M3cs. Again, being very speculative here...

I was speaking for myself. It caused me to jump ship...

F80 CS weights are pretty similar unless you had the ceramics. So let's assume yours weighs the same as mine: 3657lb Your G80 6MT with CF buckets weighs 3701lb. The weight gain is 44lb, or just under 20kg |

I know, I was referencing you (as well as 3 others who are jumping ship that I know in person).

Lots of BMW M owners are closet P car fanatics who are saving their pennies to buy 'a Porsche'. Those people were thinking of getting a P car long before the pics and weight were released. But good riddance I say. I hope they all leave this forum and go to rennlist. |

Appreciate your response. So basically my weight gain will only be slightly more than a trip to Chipotle or Peter Luger's Steakhouse.

This has nothing to do with COVID. BMW have access to all that information. It’s for them to publish/market it.

No, because they are back peddling. The point is that they could have made that video at the time of release.

It’s lighter, more powerful, significantly faster and more enjoyable to drive on track. So I have to say yes it is.

What are you talking about nothing to do with COVID? Your lust for information has nothing to do with the safety of their workers. The plants in Germany were closed due to lock downs. More than enough time to get information out there.

That's a new one, a turbo I-6 preferred over a high revving sonorous NA V8, anyhow this is just an opinion.
