You may As well ignore manufactures figures! unladen sometimes means no fuel,oil,gearbox oil, diff oil, brake fluid,battery acid, washer fluid, This is done so the car looks lighter and more advanced in magazines. And you can't drive it like that. So the actual kerb weight is what you need. My FL S8 weighed in at 1859.5kg the last time I put it on very expensive race car corner weight scales.
(With lpg) approx 30kg extra
My spec is about average
18" wheels
The weight distribution is 1111kg front And 748.5kg rear
This isn't helped by the whole engine being In front of the axle. I think a M3s and most bmw have it behind. I'd love to have or even see a S8 track car under 1200kg. go for it
