Good stuff. Can't wait to see what real owners report when taking to the F90 to an actual scale. The article states only 33lbs dropped, I tend to believe this figure more than what other journalists have reported as being much more weight loss. Not sure what to say about that, but I will say that if you swap the sunroof out of the F10 M5 with an aftermarket Carbon Roof, you will drop 66lbs from the vehicle. Wish M would've given the F90 Carbon Core at least, to really lighten the chassis up. I suspect that if the next gen G90 M5 really does go hybrid, then it could be even heavier still with that added battery pack. Other than weight, it seems to me that the new E63S and F90 M5 are closer than ever in performance.
