the verified weight is the same as a 135is 6 speed optioned out lightly. There is nothing to complain about the weight will help those of use who will be doing winter driving as well as the fact the the car is fast sporty and seems to do fairly well on a track, this isn't a DTM race or track car, if you want a pop can go buy a Honda or something
