Lets all remember the 435i curb weight is 3,610 lbs on BMWUSA. Some carbon body panels, carbon driveshaft, etc...just don't add up.
The curb weight under specifications on BMWUSA will not say 3,300 lbs.

This point is already well settled. BMW NA web uses weights with driver. The 3300 lb figure does not include driver (that's a huge difference). It may or may not include ~40 lb of savings from CSiC brakes. If BMW is being honest it should not need the brakes to be 80 kg lighter than a similarly equipped E92 M3. That latter is nearly an exact quote from BMW M on the cars weight.
