Carbon roof, wheels, seats, and some light exhaust mods and you can drop 100lbs. I have a manual with CF roof and will be doing this. I run the car in TT so will get it weighed. I would expect the car to be around 3625lbs which is basically the same as every BMW since the E9X. I'll take the small bit of extra weight for all the significant chassis improvements (rigidity, bracing, stronger hubs, bigger brakes etc. etc.). BMW's are not light cars unless you are driving something completely stripped. My friends E46 race car that weighs 2800lbs with driver, full aero, and built S54 making 380HP on slicks - now driving that thing is an experience
