F10 vs G30 built same way there's hardly any weight difference.
I'd also comparing F10 to G30 for the 520d & 530d listed weight savings.

Something like the UK 520d & 530d standard specification seem to be showing about 80kg weight saving, under the EU unladen weight standard.
Even the G30 540i in UK xDrive M-Sport specification is listed as 40kg lighter, compared to the F10 535i RWD model. Standard specification (unladen EU) is showing F10 535i vs. G30 540i, shaving off 105kg.

Something is not adding up, if you guys are saying there is little in the weight saving, "like for like".
Maybe the packages weigh more?
