...and E92 curb weight of 3550 lbs - 80 kg (176 pounds) still puts us at 3374 curb weight, or listed as EU weight at approximately 3528 lbs (slightly less, as I factored in the 75 kg driver and cargo, but did not account for the 10 percent fuel).
3374 lbs in the lightest trim possible wouldn't be a bad figure, but--again--Albert Biermann, the HEAD of development for BMW M, is the guy throwing out the "less than 1500 kg" figure. If they don't intend on delivering a product that at least approaches this, they should expect people to be miffed.
