Those M3/M4 ZCP/GTS seats with holes should weigh less than M2C seats as well (maybe ~10lbs combined for both front seats?). If you order it with titanium MPE, it'd save another 18lbs. Considering a 6MT M2C with full tank of gas weighs 3560lbs, an M2CS 6MT can realistically come at around ~3400lbs with 150-160lbs weight savings but don't ask about the price tag of this build  |
So going by those numbers, let's knock off the fancy brakes, the lithium battery and the MPE exhaust. That 160-(53+30+18)=59 lbs. lighter than the M2C. They could reduce weight in other areas but I don't see any obvious places to do that. When I want my car to weigh less I just stop eating ice cream after dinner  . |
maybe -1 pound for removing the internal door handles, the arm rest, dual zone climate, comfort access.
