Hi Friends:
An 05 545i's weight for the base model is given as 3,814 lbs--apparently for the Steptronic (given the fast-fact sheet below). I am trying to figure out how much incremetal weight I would be carrying over the base model (i.e., ignoring the weight savings I have actually acheived) because of:
Comfort seats:
Sport package (including active steering):
Premium package:
SIRIUS:
Premium Sound with 6 CD Changer:
Bluetooth:
Parking Distance Control:
Navagation:
Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Remember, I am asking about incremental weight--e.g, the excess of the lbs. for comfort seats over the lbs. for the base car's seats. And, if you think of anything I have missed, then please let me know. I will factor in gasoline and my own weight.

You should stop by the next truck station and weigh your car... I think its about $7 to $10... I always wanted to do that since I drive by the 5 freeway south weigh station every time I go down to San Diego...

Is there a weight difference between the 4.4 and the 4.8?
100 pounds I think...
