We all know that the E9x is a bit of pig. I wouldn't mind it if our cars were 400lbs lighter. What I don't understand is when people try to make there cars lighter with an exhaust and they ordered the car to have every option possible. The point is, this is a great starting point if you want to go even lighter(exhaust, wheels, insulation, battery etc.) There are significant weight savings by eliminating, NAV, Power seat, Sunroof, no fold down seats, premium sound, EDC, heated seats, power rear shade, DCT etc. It all adds up...

Good Luck with sale OP!
