But, yes, HT has a full interior.

That said, we figure he's up to 100Ib less than most M5s because he's unbelievably short and resembles a skeleton in physique. I jest of course—he's actually a total porker. Sorry, Mike, I'm making myself laugh now and that's all that matters sometimes.

The weight savings come from his CC brakes and aftermarket wheels. That combined with an upgraded intake, an exhaust system that's basically a pair of empty tubes exiting his engine that emerge as tailpipes with 'Ef'all else in between... oh, and some race fuel('ish) equates to better times to come from this car in my opinion.
LMAO

Shoei is actually the one who talked me into full leather by the way.

But, honestly you can lose a couple hundred pounds if you keep everything to the bare minimum. All the equipment and things needed for soft shut doors, auto parking, and all the random shit add up to nearly 200lbs from what I hear. But, it's an M5.. I want some luxury too :P
Danged straight, try and take my soft close doors away and you'll lose a finger.
