Not saying weight is everything, and if the G87 is like the G82, then it will still handle very well, but it seems like they created a problem by making the car heavy and their solution was to make it even heavier with reinforcements vs making the car lighter to avoid all this

Unfortunately, throwing more power into it is vastly less expensive than various weight reduction methods. BMW has admitted such.
