They better stagger the wheels! I don't want to see puny 255's or 265's at the rear! 275's and up.

True. But the M3/M4 will only be 3,300lbs.

That's the manufacturer's claimed weight for a dry, "bare bones" M3 with a 6MT.

The M3 with DCT weighs over 3,400 lbs.

My guess is that a well-optioned M3 with DCT and a full tank of gas well weigh close to 3,650-3,750 lbs.

The car with DCT weights around 3,400 pounds. It's only 44 pounds lighter then the outgoing e92 M3. Not something you'd feel.

I doubt there are many stock real world e92's weighing less than 3600 lbs. I don't see the F80/82 weighing more than 3500 lbs loaded up.

I agree with there not being any real world e92's weighting less then 3,600 lbs. I can see the F80/2 coming in in at roughly 3,600 - 3,650 pounds loaded up. It's really not that light compared to it's predecessor.
