I can see the same ~100lbs reduction as in the F30/F32 but not 300lbs in the "regular" model, though.
3300 lbs makes no sense given the size of this car.

No possible way this car weighs what a 911 or vette weighs. I mean, even a 458 italia is 3400-3500 lbs. I dont see a the M3/4 being anwhere within 150 lbs of this weight. As I said in my previous post, there is probably some kind of semantic approach to that (i.e. no options). The f30 335 is ~35XX lbs, and the M3/4 will get more beefed up components to add weight and likely add more than they save.

My pure guess, 3600-3650 fully loaded.
