With the same level of effort (a LOT, skinned everything, lexan, manual brakes, etc) I'm pretty sure the 135 could get down to a similar weight.
Depends on how far you want to take it, I'm sure it could get down to about the same as that e36 then.

I think 780 kgs dry is pretty far to the extreme though: http://news.kwautomotive.com/picture...eorg_Plasa.pdf
