170.9 L x 72.8 W = 12,441.5 sq" footprint
BMW 328 coupe: .2369 lbs per sq"
3,351 lbs
181.1 L x 78.1 W = 14,143.9 sq" footprint
comparatively the BMW 328 is only 300lbs heavier overall... for a bigger car with more "content" stuffed into it, that suprised me.
of course the evora will stomp all over the bmw performace #'s wise. and the 335 which would probably be a fairer 'performance' comparision is heavier...
anyways - thought it was an interesting comparision
i am still a big Evora fan boy though

I had the pleasure of driving the Evora last week in Atlanta and it is a stellar car. Handling, fit and finish were excellent. It did not feel like and elise but it had the crispness of it. It had plenty of giddy up and I am sure when they sc that bad boy it will be sub 4 seconds for a gt.
