763M wheels ==> -8lbs over 437Ms or -17lbs over 788Ms on M2C
Lithium battery ==> -30lbs (or even more)

So they can save close to 160lbs over M2C without even touching the interior. If they add manual AC, manual seats, lightweight door trim etc total weight savings can be near 200lbs.
Just nitpicking here:

The CCB offer ~18lb of weight reduction over the standard iron brakes.

On the F10 M5, the CCB offered a ~42lb reduction over the iron rotors of the same size with the same callipers in front and larger callipers in the rear, I doubt the difference is any greater than this between the M2C BBK and CCB.
I came up with these numbers based on BMW ETK (by comparing the weight of each part) so not claiming they are 100% accurate.
