So the bmwusa.com website is posting these "curb weights" as of 4/2/2014
M3
- 3595 DCT
- 3540 6MT
M4
- 3585 DCT
- 3530 6MT
Really?? There is a perfect TEN pounds between the cars? lol
I really want to buy these cars.... but I REALLY want them to weigh less then 3,000 lbs
BMW could have released the next gen M3 with the same S65 engine and dropped 800 lbs. and the performance AND MPG would have gone UP and they could have charged me MORE for LESS ....and my dumbass ///M brander for life would have paid.
What gives??
This car was supposed to be lighter then an e46m3, no?
Ideally, it should be lighter then an e36m3.
I don't care about NAVI, BMW Assist, Apps, Power Seats, Heated Steering Wheel, ... I dont want 8 computers correcting my driving.
I dont want self-parking or lane departure = are they selling M3s to the senior citizen demographic now?
Give me a bare bones M3/4 that weighs 3,000 lbs, has 360+ hp to the wheels, a light yet full of feedback steering feel, a neutral chassis with a touch of oversteer, a diff that makes sense at the track, brakes that will not fade after 10 repeated hard stops and bring the car down from 60 mph in 100 ft, seats that hold my fat american ass in place during 1.2 G lateral, HUD that tells me RPM and MPH, How about a 2-way Coilover Kit from the factory (Ya, like Ferrari does) and either a 6 speed that shifts like a Honda S2000 with a proper SSK or a DCT that shifts faster then the F10M5.
Release a "special edition" "CSL" "Lightweight" ....I dont care what you call it....stop building these bloated 3500 lbs. M3, 4300 lbs. M5 and 5000+ lbs. X5s and calling them "efficient dynamic" ///M cars,....you are better then this Mr. ///M Engineer. And frankly, it is an insult to lightweight M for Motorsport Engineering.
It's got a Carbon Fiber roof for crying out loud !!
How did they engineer in a Carbon Fiber roof and driveshaft for lightweight and then decide to put 14 computers and whatever else that makes this car heavy?
Is it the F3x chassis? Was it a heavy chassis to begin with and no CF roof or Driveshaft was ever going to help this??
Can we drill some holes in it to lighten it?
I am pissed... I was really hoping for 3300 lbs at the least :(
