So if Your car is heavier than the official figures, that isn't because BMW has provided wrong numbers, but because you have added equipment not included in the official spec.
In EU the curb weights are also established during type approval by a independent organisation (usually TÜV) by actually weighing the car (and subtracting weight of any optional equipment that may have been added on the test vehicle). So the curb weight number has been achieved on a real car  |
We'll see how this comes out. My bet is that a stripper U.S. M4 stick comes in at an E46-like 3400 plus pounds. Say, 3420 or a little less.
Looking forward to this new M, regardless of weight.
