Temm, I love this statement from the article: "The manual version is 0.2s slower to 60mph, but is so much more intuitive on a winding road that it has to be the one to go for still, though."
Says who?

Easy. By adding ISO standard allowance of 75 kg for driver and luggage (68 and 7 kg respectively) to the unladen weight of 1585 kg as measured according to German DIN standard, to arrive at the weight of 1660 kg as measured according to the international ISO standard.

Or, they actually weighed it with a full tank of gas.

DIN standard unladen weight includes 90% full fuel tank, plus other operating fluids like coolant, oils, brake fluid.
90% of about 66 liter 997 fuel tank would only weigh about 48 kg.
