Make the car lighter and it will naturally save fuel, and you won't need to turbo the motor.

BMW just doesn't seem to get that. They keep preaching about efficient dynamics but their cars are everything but efficient or dynamic with the way they are gaining weight. BMW has preached that they are make cars "lighter", but yet, they have been becoming porkier and porkier by the generation. The new 6 series is amazing to look at though and the technology in that car is absolutely amazing.
