Those points could be valid to some. Mute points to others. We can all agree it will be a phenomenal vehicle.
And I, for one, cannot rest my arm on the window frame as it is uncomfortable to me even in several different BMWs. On long journeys, I rest my arms on both the arm rests (the sliding centre one is genius) so I can see why the CS/GTS could be uncomfortable to some.

I've had a look in ETK and if the numbers are true, the weight savings are minimal. Think the standard stereo actually saves some weight compared to Harman Kardon. What would save even more weight are manual seats... Yet, I have seen only memory seats in CS press cars.
