They managed to add 130lbs to that. It's a shame BMW keeps going in the wrong direction with weight.
The M235i Racing flyer does not feature the weight figure, neither did/do most websites reporting about the release.

We do know that 3373.1 lbs (1530 kg) is the official unladen weight figure quoted for the 'regular' M235i (with optional LSD) (http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showp...17&postcount=1).
