I must have had the new M3 figures in mind...
US curb 335i: 3571 lbs
Estimate for US curb for 135i I've seen: ~3250 lbs
...so that's ~ 300+ lbs.
New M3 claims 3650-3700 lbs curb weight estimate...so there's the 400+ lbs difference I was mistakenly thinking of.

As for your figures...check out bmw.de, download the 3-coupe catalog.
Empty weight EU for 335i is actually 1600 kg. So...what happened to that 55 kg? Options? Do we see BMW playing around (again) with options and specs for the weights?
