Carbon Roof: 4.42kg
Metail Roof: 10.25kg (withhout the sunroof)
Sunroof: 5.6 + 6.05 + 1.2 = 12.85 kg

So in total:
Carbon Roof 4.42 vs metal roof with sunroof 23.1kg
Difference: 18.68kg = 41.18 lbs
Thanks- for the support. Since I "arbitrarily" created the numbers ... The newer CF roofs will be lighter as well since there have been advances in the resins.


The fun weight number to look at is in the seats and how much they can save there- it is amazing how heavy the power seats are.

all the best,
