This is consistent with similar information posted on Bimmerfile last week. However, I was under the impression the car would be produced for two years, not just one.

As I have pointed out elsewhere, 500 units in North America corresponds to 1-2 cars per dealership. It stands to reason that you need to be either #1 or #2 on the waiting list to have a realistic shot at purchasing the car. And you better be prepared for a "market adjustment" premium.

So much for BMW's plan to have younger less affluent customers buying the baby M car.
