I don't think that's attributable to the CF roof necessarily since the 335i coupe also weighs 25lbs less than the the 335i sedan. Not sure if Autoweek realized this.

Autoweek might well be off in their estimates anyway. We'll see what the official number turns out to be from BMW. If the coupe really ends up being 3506 lbs then that is only a 94lb gain from the official number for the E46 M3. That would be excellent if true.
