Another consideration is the Executive Package, which certainly had a take rate of more than 50 percent for 2018. Now some of those parts are included in the “base” M2C.
And, BTW, the sunroof was not available until the 2018 LCI.

That actually tells us a lot as I mentioned in my previous posts. BMWUSA released weight figures of 3450lbs (6MT) and 3505lbs(DCT) in 2016 when M2 was first offered in the US. Since moonroof wasn't available up until LCI, teh US curb weight of the original M2 doesn't factor in the moonroof. If BMWUSA
anticipates 33% or more adoption rate for the moonroof, it means 3600lbs (6MT) weight spec includes ~50lbs for the moonroof as well. In other words, the US spec M2C might be 100lbs (instead of 150lbs) heavier than the original M2.
