250kg is 500 pounds+ AND more power. Screamer, I'll take two.

I have to question what is going to come out to make it that much lighter. If it's going to be stripped like an M3 CSL that's badass, but kind of takes away from daily driveability for most people. (I'd still rock it, fuck AC)

Fuck AC?


Well living in an area like SoCal or Arizona, or Nevada, or etc. you're definitely going to need AC during the summer.

I recall reading 114 degrees on my car's thermometer this past summer. And that temperature occured more than twice this year.

I need the AC to stay

Most likely a lot of carbon fiber. It would be nice though if it was things like the audio system and things and the cost was kept near the same.
