I'm in complete support of sports cars without moonroofs. I ordered my M235 with the moonroof delete. I do question the weight though. Last week I watched a YT video of a guy remove the moonroof and assembly from his 135i and replace it with a CF insert. The entire moonroof and assembly weighed around 35lbs. The 2 series moonroof isn't any bigger than the one on the 135 and I would venture to guess it's the same system/size.

If you want the lightest US spec "stock" I6 turbo 2 series, having a 6MT without the moonroof is it. It's around 90lbs lighter than a comparably equipped RWD 8AT. It's even lighter an a 6MT no moonroof M2.
