Wonder what it will weigh, compared to a standard E30 M3? Getting on for 1.5 tonnes, I imagine...

I'm sure it was in there, that it'll weigh more than the origional M6 did, with the aded weight of the rollcage, and other metalwork.
IIRC, about 1.8 tons. 8O

It's basically an M6 with an E30 body, so I would presume it would.

Doesn't the M6 have a carbon fibre roof?so all that metal would move the center of gravity a bit higher

I don't think the owners that bothered about the roof.
But then again, it's only gone live today, so it's still in the "Process" of the build.

:cool: kind of defeats what an e30 m3 was originally about but hey ho. I give the owners 18 months before someone has to hose him off the dash
