It might be for the next generation just around the corner (like the M5), due to the fact their 'donor' models are bigger and heavier, but as swamp said, that trend has to stop at some time. And with the tough new CAFE standards, I bet it starts with the next iteration. And you already saw the beginning of that, with smaller/lighter engines. I predict the weight increase will be minimum, then reversed on the next model.
