Without the AWD system the F90 would be a whopping 136,5kg (300lbs) lighter than the F10... With the AWD it's 70kg (154lbs) lighter...
All this of course according to the weight estimate given in that thread

In real world the F10 M5 weighed another ~250lbs than BMW's claim of 1870 kg. I'd wait until magazines get a hold of production cars and get them on the scales. The last F10 M5 comp pack Motor Trend weighed was 4369 lbs or 1981 kg.
Edit: Just realized, unless I am doing the conversion wrong...1800 kg is not 4,200 lbs. So that last thread needs some fact checking.
