Put a brick on the gas pedal and get out of the car. Should save 130-250 lbs.

Remove charcoal canister, ac, ps, cruise control/ABS, windshield washer reservoir/pump/lines, get a cardboardfiber hood(lighter than carbon fiber), foglights instead of headlights, Unpainted Fiberglass Z3 fenders, remove your stock front lip if you have one, fiberglass front bumper with shock absorber removed, take out passenger and rear seats, remove dash and ziptie your guage cluster in place. Take out center console, shift boot/****, cut shifter in half, remove gas tank and replace with 1 gallon fuel cell, cardboard fiber rear hatch w/o taillights or license plate, fiberglass rear bumper with shock absorber removed, fake carbon fiber APC outer taillights, Remove passenger mirror and carbon fiber M3 the other one, no door panels, if you have power locks take out the relay. As for your front corner lenses, take them out and replace them with sidemarkers. Oh yeah, mount your air filter on your throttle body, remove the bracket that goes between the intake manifold and your block, and take your timing cover off.

You should be able to drop some weight by doing those things.
