With that said, I guess so much for hoping the next generation BMW M5 will be able to drop 400lbs! Lol!
Realised the weight problem too. There is nooo way this can be the actual weight, some one fucked something up when writing in the numbers. There is no way BMW can lie about weight savings from extensive carbon fiber. Even the M4 is 80kg lighter than its E92 predecessor, and even if its not 150 kg or more, the weight at least dropped. Hard to believe that the weight of the new 7 series increased by 100 kg, even through all the "carbon fiber".
