The weight reduction is an interesting factor because further down the line (Not tomorrow) there could be additional models under the GTS or CSL designation which are certainly under discussion because of the advancement of CFRP.
So as always this journey will be...interesting.

But there must be the establishment period first and foremost.
But what you can take from this is that for the competition , adding a CFRP roof like the M3 E92 adds extra cost, look at the M4 and M3? They have completely re-written the rules here in terms of advancement of lightweight technology.

A new era has begun under BMWi and today so it begins for BMW M.
In 2015 it begins for BMW. Which shows how exciting the future will be for all BMW brands.

Welcome to the Carbon Age.
