It was made so with better engine, suspension etc. The weight increase was not that significant - almost certainly down to the extra glass area being heavier than tin. With the exception of the "droop snoot" Mk2 RS2000, the Cd was definitely worse - I think there are figures in the Jeremy Walton book.
