Yeh, I suppose if you plan on tracking it heavily. There is absolutely no way, you or any one else is going to feel a hundred pound weight difference while driving on public roads, spirited or not. As far as your "lightness costs less" comment, it's because you are recieving less of those options that categorize this as a GT vehicle. (minus the sun roof). There is a multitude of vehicles on the market that are faster, more trackable, more throwable, and far trimmer than the m3. This is however it's best attribute, above average performance joined with daily driver luxury.
