M3?

CF roof, perspex rear screen will save nearly 28 kg on their own.

Lightweight wheels wont affect noise at all.

Recaro seats will save another 20kg even over the CSL seats, no affect on noise.

Perspex rear screen would annoy for a road car, no heating element, no radio aerial and no remote locking aerial (last one from memory).

I would defo go for the seats and maybe the wheels but the rear window and roof are a bit to extreme for me...

Also CSL already has a thinner rear screen. If anyone wants to modify their normal M3 to have one I've got a thinner one from my CSL somewhere.

Either that or he's driving a 318i CSL lookalike with a pholiotech stick on carbon roof!!

And there's nothing wrong with still owning an R5 Turbo............................................. ..........................that many hours of therapy won't solve.
