Apparently that's not working out too well for you so far

Well, now that I'm here I might as well add some more fuel to the fire
I'd wager that a US spec M2 CS will come in slightly lighter than a US spec M2 C
The CF roof should save around 10-11 pounds
The CF hood should save around 18-20 pounds
The CF center console should save around 6 pounds
The 763M wheels should save around 16-20 pounds
The PSC2 tires (if optioned) should save around 2 pounds
Estimated weight savings around 52-59 pounds
I don't know the total weight added by the M adaptive suspension, but I think it's highly unlikely that it's more than 50 pounds
Overall, it's not a huge amount of weight savings, but it is almost certainly not heavier
Comparing a M2 CS to a base spec M2 C in other markets would be another story as they come standard with lighter seats, lighter brakes and lighter wheels
There is no doubt that BMW elected not to grab some low hanging fruit in the interest of saving weight such as using manual seats or a lighter battery, but remember that we're talking about a M2 CS and not a M2 CSL
