CSL v M3 weight

[derek]

Trying to find out how much weight I have removed from the M3 to compare it to the CSL . Anyone got accurate info figures for weight of CSL and M3 and what is included, i.e. driver weight, fuel, luggage, extras. Lots of varying figures on net. Thanks

My CSL with SS lightweight, AP racing brakes and the Ohlins suspension is 1400kg with full tank, without driver and nothing stripped out of the car (it has Xenon, AC, rain sensor and radio // also fire extinguisher, triangle, tyre mobility kit etc).

Yeap Nathan .
Minus ~9kg from the suspension, a couple more from the wheels.
Fair enough, maybe it's not 1400kg but 1405kg, with a few cds, sun glasses, fire extinguisher, triangle, 1lt of spare oil, an umbrella, a net holding the things in the luggage compartment, a silvester fury toy, a reflective vest, an OBD bluetooth adapter, a few coins (EUR and CHF) and other things that I am forgetting.
So I am pretty sure if I remove all the above, I have -5kg and therefore the 1400kg is realistic.

You love to pick on me, don't you ?

Behave! Hardly picking, the only thing we don't agree on is your optimistic dyno figures

I searched and found that thread to see how heavy mine used to be as I thought it was a lot heavier than yours but couldn't remember the figures.

I think mine was 1350kg at its lowest with rear seats removed, boot emptied, passenger seat removed, AP, Intrax, SS, Recaro, pollen filter out, Volks, Braille.

(I apologies up front if someone checks my previous posts and they tell a different story )

The Swiss CSLs are simply faster

Remember yours is rhd and has less ponies.

Shimmy the lhd ones are a bit lighter due to the lightweight carpet

Today Adem and I put the m3 on the scales with no driver and 3/4 of fuel = 1380kg

That's with interior stripped, ap's, intrax and air con removed. Still got oem exhaust and loads of stuff to fit.

Last time the Csl was on the scales it was 1387 kg with half a tank.
That was with all interior and full supersprint system and ap's and intrax.
