Excellent thread. Does anyone know what a typical variance is between the advertised weight and the actual delivery weight?

My car should weigh 2,865 lbs, but is coming in at 2,884 lbs. That is only 19 lbs difference, and could be scale error, a heavier than expected car, or both. I was just wondering what a normal difference might be between delivery and advertised-- especially since my measurement was on a nearly empty tank and the consensus here is that BMW does "wet" weights.

The 2004 Z4 3.0i is supposed to weigh 3,009 lbs. Mine came with the sport/premium packages.

I weighed mine with a nearly empty tank and after losing weight from the following changes:

Battery -32
Wheels -41
Springs -6
Seats - 70
Camber plates +5

Theoretical = 2,865
Actual = 2,884

Thanks
