What's your weight?

I've seen some great threads on here with some amazing builds, and was curious to see where everyone is in terms of weight. I had a chance to weigh my car for the first time on the way to the track this past Friday. With my car being right on 3/4 of a tank, I weighed in at 3320.

3320 is very light for a E9xM3. What have you taken out?

What exhaust, battery and driveshaft are you running? Brakes? Wheels?

This pig is hard to put on a diet.

3,900+ lbs with me in it.

Heaviest e9X track car on the forum.

I've got great tips for adding weight if anyone wants it.

Mine was 3600 completely stock and with a full tank of gas

By now I've moved to track wheels, BBK, swapped the front seats for buckets so I must weigh less. Haven't weighed it again.

Ha, and still the faster on the forum I recon! Saw another of your vids today man, the only one knocking you was that red Ferrary (F12? Cant remember). Shows fat is fine as long as you have the juice...

unless you have stock suspension and are trying to do anything other than a straight line!

the carbon roof and maybe the Akra Evo are the only weight saving features.

They are more than overshadowed by the blower, the supplemental 5 gallon water tank, the full interior, DCT, heavy cast 19" cheap AG 359 wheels, hell even the 30 pounds rear sunshade!

Just had my car weighed today. Came in at 3,651 lbs with full tank of gas. Our cars hold approximately 100 lbs of gasoline at full tank. Mostly stock 6MT with moonroof (someday I wish to have a carbon roof and carbon driveshaft). Portly things these M3's. Would've been nice to have these cars closer to 3,200 lbs straight from the factory.

I didn't want one due to the weight but the V8 was the siren song that won me over. Car looks good, too.

Battery is 58lbs
Front seats are 120lbs (lol)
Exhaust is 100lbs
Driveshaft is 25lbs
