Find a good 1985-1988 E28 M5 then.
It's a featherweight at 3,417 lb. Less than an M2.
Because you're not hauling around all those modern luxury goods.
Let's see now. The outgoing F10 M5 weighs about 4,288 lb.
Here's the math: 4,288 - 3,417 = 871 lb.
You'd be saving 871 lb. and probably a lot of cash as well.
Note: The G-generation M5 might weigh less than the F11, but will probably cost more.
