It's 200lbs heavier comparing xDrive to xDrive. That's with a 3.5" increase in length & 2.5" in width (due to the CLAR platform), 19" vs. 18" wheels/tires, a M differential (huge deal), additional bracing (to make it 40% stiffer), 2 more speakers, a bigger amp, and likely some safety improvements. Oh and of course like 50 more hp.

Ya I'd say the whole too heavy thing is played out. This isn't a Miata or FRS.
