From www.rri.se (curb weights):

07 M3 Coupe - 1611kg
08 M3 Sedan - 1664kg
06 RS4 - 1736kg
07 RS4 - 1728kg

So the RS4 is conservatively ~110kg heavier than the M3 Coupe in reality...
It's interesting how the M3 actually weighs less than quoted, maybe the same goes for it's output.

The driving experience and how a thing performs should be everyones concern, not weight, weight balance or how many wheels are doing the driving.

P.S.
Lets face it, who hear would turn their nose up at a GT3. It's all about the driving and that is it.
