Did they dyno it as well? I'm curious about how much power and torque the engine makes.
All the weights below are from BMW DE pdfs, EU spec with 75kg driver and luggage and 90% full tank.
650i was 1870kg
650xi was 1930kg
M6 was 1925kg - Autobild March 2016 shows 1882kg for a Coupe with 343M wheels, Carbon Ceramics which are both lighter than the stock 344m 19" wheels and the steel brakes
M550xi is 1885kg
M850xi is 1965kg
F90 M5 is 1930kg
Based on the weight difference from M550xi to the m850xi and the M5 I think it'll be +-30kg from 2000kg
xDrive will always 60-70kg according to all of the documents I look into, I wonder sometimes if there are small trim changes or if they always round to the nearest 5kg and sometimes the scales just go a bit one way or the other.
Did their M850xi have a Carbon roof? That is one way the M6 previously saved weight over the 650i but now that won't always be the case.
