go on a diet! haha i did full catless exhaust, lighter wheels, CAI, carbon fiber bits, and was at 3350 with a full tank of gas and me in the car (155lbs) I too can feel the difference with a full tank vs. 1/4 tank.

i cant imagine how much faster this car would be at 3000 lbs or sub 3000 lbs...my guess is lots

I have received stuff from revozport before. They offer sea freight, which is much more affordable than the airfreight they often advertise on their site.
Revozport told me that they are the same, course they could be very wrong. I doubt I would change it anyways.

I can imagine. I plan on doing the work myself, but for someone who doesn't the labor must be enormous!

Labor will be ~20 hours. I will replace all of the windshield seals too. It is a pretty hectic process to do right.

Check out the protuning freaks time attack 135i. That thing is 2500lbs. It has a full custom carbon fiber body. You can see pictures of it on their facebook page. It was featured on this year's bimmerfest east in their booth. Its beautiful and very fast.

where does it say it's full carbon fiber shelled?

just curious, because if that's true that's INSANE

other than that... they didn't have a shop car last year, they've only been sponsoring this one since a month or two ago?
