I am not sure what you are insinuating here, but I was specific on how my car was weighed: stock with full fuel, save for MPE and Mobility kit.

But I agree, just fuel can make a ~45kg difference


Which jives with the AM&S number I posted. Yet, their test car came 55kg below that. The M2cs is in a similar situation, where AM&S weighed their test car 37kg below DIN weight (see below). DIN weight is a good reference point, but it is far from an absolute.

...and vollgetankt means fully fuelled
Perhaps it's uneven application of seam sealer and sound deadening material. There's so much of it!

Pathetic defence of weight gain, why didn't they compere like for like, manual vs manual, my guess is that with standard spec on both cars there's a 150kg difference. Pathetic...

This is all personal preference.

I would never buy the last year model because it's outdated right away (looks, tech, performance) and then the new model comes out.

I typically like buying the 2nd year model because the car would be fairly new in the market and some issues would've likely been identified & resolved, plus you get some chance to negotiate a better deal.

Others like to buy as soon as the LCI model comes out for obvious reasons.

This time I'm going with the AWD version which will be 2022 (technical 2nd year model) but effectively speaking it is the 1st year model. I'm not waiting any longer so I'll take the risk and pay close to MSRP.

LOL!

Yesterday on the school run my 2 boys 12/14yr saw the first base specced 4 series in cross traffic. Both expressed their repulsion spontanuously: "WTF, is that thing a BMW?". While children just speak their mind, adults are inclined to rationalise and contemplate about it. Have to add, the base spec with tiny 17 inch rims and the chrome grill, is probably not the best guise.

50/50 is better no doubt, but I'am not so certain that this mildly skewed distribution will make a lot of difference. In comparo with Audi which carry +60% in the front, 53% is still rather neutral I'd presume. It will however allow for a bit higher entry speed in the braking phase, and allow sooner acceleration on apex on the exit phase. The cost of this is a gently more understeered character when you aim at the apex.

Also prepare for their video still to be released where they will explain the smaller front wheels vs rear, providing the opportunity for a significant 'higher' tire providing a more progressive turn in and make it less sensitive to directional jerk. Also the wider front track will help clearly to build more directional prowess.

Damn, I hope I'am not converting to a fan already, reading my own post.

Wanna see where this would be now, pretty sure the C02 hasn't improved :


Noticed in their weight video, a full tank doesn't even cover 400 km range ... that's not much ... maybe the onboard computer is calculating this because the previous usage was heavy and consumption was especially high but for a car that is not even break in it's weird...
Indeed, this is a REAL showstopper in Europe. I never commented on this because this is a US forum. But I wonder how they are going to sell ANY of those puppies with these abysmal CO² emmission numbers and related excessive taxes here!

What happens in Europe now, will hit fast in US the coming few years. I'am afraid that resale value will be dreadful. This is certainly the last none electric assisted M.

Actually, contrary to what BMW wants us to believe, 50/50 is not "ideal" for handling dynamics. It is a question of polar moment of inertia: the farther the center of gravity resides relative to the rear axle, the greater the force needed from the front tires to get the car to change direction. There is a reason why all great sports and race cars have a rear weight bias. And yes, a 1~2% shift is significant.

Yes, but is also the reason why they put wider tires on the front axle this time. You can lean more on the front-axle with the G8. Also they stiffened the rotational rigidity by a lot.

When you're driving GT races, you probably don't want it, but when you're a casual track hero, I understand why a more front end biased config makes sense.

Ok, I understand 50/50 is not ideal, but it's preferable to 53 front/47 rear?

2) DIN weights comparing the G8X and all its variants have been available for some time. So we don't need to speculate about the G82 to G80 delta, the 6MT to 8AT delta, the weight of the CF seats, etc
3) The G82 in the video is said to have 'minimal options', but still has nav as that cannot be removed just like the F8X generation.
What options could the G82 not have that my F80 CS has? HUD? Do you think that's a significant source of weight? For sure it has a center console which must weigh something and my F80 CS does not have.
Your figures are listed as if they are mathematically computed, and it does not appear that there are any obvious assumptions.

The issue is the weight of the G8X AWD by considering the weight of the G82 manual in the OP’s video.

We cannot assume that the G82 in the video is configured for the US market. G82 can be packaged differently or not packaged for different markets. We do not know what the specs are for the G82 or for the F82 in the video. Do we know for a fact that the differences between the G82 manual in the video and the G82 AWD (configured as the F82 in the video) are only the ZCP and seats?
From the exchanges above between you and CanAutM3, there are differences in the weights of both your existing M3 CSs which you appeared not to be able to account for mathematically. Do you think the weight of the production G8X AWD (which is not even available) can be computed mathematically when we do not know what specs are for the G82 manual in the video, and also compared with the F82 (specs of which are not made known) in the video? Why can't BMW just tell us eg the actual specs of the G82 in the video, weight of a fully loaded one and/or compare it with a similarly equipped F82?

It is not my statement; it is quoted from BMWblog, as shown in the link posted. Presumably, it should read as “the heaviest F82 BMW could lay its hands on for the video”.

For sure it is. As I stated, the closest the CG to rear axle, the better (up to a certain limit naturally) and every % counts.

By wider front tires I assume you mean less width stagger than before? Because every generation M3/4 got wider front tires from one gen to the next and the G8X still has staggered widths.

Yes, I believe they had to invest additional effort on the front axle to offset the greater front weight bias which creates more understeer. I also believe the staggered diameter rims is for the same purpose. I guess we’ll find out soon enough.

The difference in weight between my CS and the homologated weight for the CS is 2lb. 2lb. I'm not sure how much closer you think it should be, but I think we're pretty good there.
I can't speak to CanAut's car. I've stated my conditions when my car was weighed on corner balancing scales: completely full tank and completely oem.

I don't recall discussing the weight of the AWD G8X at any point. That car isn't coming out as a 2021 model. We can be quite sure it will weigh a good amount more than the RWD G8X car.
The people clamoring for lightweight AWD cars seem to not understand that AWD hardware adds a significant amount of weight to any car. It's been like this since the beginning of time, not sure why it seems like a surprise.

There is no 'apples to apples' comparison of a AWD G8X to a RWD F8X because they are two different systems.

We don't know the spec of the F82 in the video but I know the spec of my CS, which is heavier than the video F82 despite having a CF hood, no center console and a cf prop shaft. Options I have are HK sound and the executive package.
The assumption is quite reasonable, unless I'm doing the equivalent of playing chess with a pigeon and have to stop wasting time answering.

Finally, if you don't mind, I'll take euro weights which are legally homologated in europe, from a european mag not associated with BMW a million times over 'bmwblog', which does not need to worry about homologated weights. Wasn't bmwblog the website that said the F8X weighed 3400lb?

BMW showed a (homologated) DIN weight of 1,497kg/3,300lb for the F82 in its original press release

As I stated earlier, DIN are not all hold and behold either: a good reference point but not an absolute. Just options can make weights vary by 60kg+. The DIN weight standards were also revised somewhere around 2016, which makes it more difficult to do direct comparisons.

Ok not the AWD, but don't your figures below assume (without basis) that the difference between the G82 6MT and the F82 DCT (both in the video) are only the transmission and the seats (since you concluded the difference is 152 lb between the F82 DCT vs the G82 ZCP with regular seats)?

Per the video, in LB
F82 DCT full tank: 3615
G82 6MT full tank + CF seats: 3689
G82 6MT full tank + regular seats: 3712
G82 ZCP + CF seats: 3745
G82 ZCP + regular seats: 3767

The most apples to apples comparison is the F82 DCT vs the G82 ZCP with regular seats. 152lb weight gain. This isn't good, but it's half of what I expected.

When someone shows a ridiculous weight like that it is clear there's a mistake.
When Audi took out the RS4 they also stated a DIN weight of like 3500lb which was later corrected to its real weight. That's fine. Mistakes certainly happen.

I'm using the DIN weight to compare options like 6MT vs 8AT, G82 vs G80, etc. The G8X weight I'm taking straight from the video.

In the case of the F8X the DIN weight seems to match up quite nicely with my car. The G8X BMW weighed was on corner scales, like my car, so unless gravity was reversed or HK speakers weigh 50lb and my CF hood, prop shaft and no center console add up to nothing, I feel we have a good proxy for its weight.

I'm more than happy to bet that the G8X RWD is not going to gain 250lb more than my CS, more or less apples to apples comparison between them [midpoint of the 200-300lb range you mentioned earlier]

The constant comments of 'we don't know what the options of the G8X are' are beating a dead horse. It may or may not have HK because we don't know if that's standard in Germany. Their mention of 'lightweight build' tell me no Exec package. Still, we do know my options and my car was weighed the same way that car was weighed.

Oh I'm sure there are other little differences. I won't die on the hill of 152lb, but it's going to be around there.

The more powerful comparison to do is that my F80 CS weighs more than the F82 they have in the video despite weight saving measures my car has over the F82, so they did not pick the heaviest F82.

If my F80 CS weighs 3657lb then an F80 non CS should weigh more. HK was standard on all cars after the first or first few production years. I have the exec package which is not standard on any F80 and adds weight for sure, but then I have other things which reduce weight vs a regular F80:
-Lighter wheels than the ZCP ones (IIRC)
-No center console
-CF hood
-CF propshaft
-No comfort access (std on all US cars after a few years)

How much is all of that worth? I don't know, but it should be enough to compensate for my exec package. Versus that, the G80 model weight can be analyzed without too much difficulty based on the video.

Initially I was looking at DIN weights for the G8X and almost had a heart attack as per DIN weights there is a 320lb difference between my CS and the G80 8AT.

Yes, BMWblog is partial towards BMW. BMWblog is referring to the AWD when it mentioned the G8X will be a 4000 lb car.

"So when equipped with an automatic and all-wheel drive, the new BMW M3 and M4 tip the scales dangerously close to 1,800 kg (4,000-ish lbs)." https://www.bmwblog.com/2021/01/12/u...ing-bmw-m3-m4/

"The G82 BMW M4 used in this video was the lightest possible M4 possible, being a manual, rear-wheel drive car. When equipped with the eight-speed automatic gearbox, all-wheel drive and the standard seats, the G82 M4 gets actually crests just north of the 1,800-ish (4,000 lb) mark. So, yes, the manual M4 is barely heavier than the old M4 and that’s very good, if properly equipped. But the majority of M3 and M4 customers will get the auto/all-wheel drive car and those cars are significantly heavier (some markets, such as the UK, will only be getting those versions for now)." https://www.bmwblog.com/2021/01/11/g82-bmw-m4-heavier/

Imo, we don't know what the options are on the G82 in the video is a valid point. On the contrary, you are assuming that the options are the same for the G82 and the F82 (both in the video) other than the transmission and the seats.
