The E92 M3 GTS is 300 lbs lighter than a E92 M3. Give this hypothetical NA F80 limited edition the same savings and we are at 3000 lbs ( with driver which close to an E30... ). Then increase bore as far as cylinder walls safely allows it and you will have quite a machine that will have little problems smoking a 335i and the sound of an NA I6 at 9000 rpm will be worth it alone.
