Only Making 1000 for US? Scott?
I was under the impression that BMW would not be limiting the number of units for the US. However, insideline claims that BMW will only be bringing 1000 to the US. Can anyone clarify?

Well, if they are limiting the number of these available, then most dealers will mark the cars up, meaning this "affordable" M becomes much less appealing. I was hoping to get one at MSRP worst case...Hopefully these reports of limited allocations are incorrect..

interesting..
I want one though, so i'll have to figure out the best way to go about this. Putting a deposit down at the dealer now would pretty much ensure that I get screwed on the deal. Then again, this isn't looking like a car dealers will be willing to make deals for anytime soon.. |

I doubt a test drive is in my future either. I can see a locked car in the showroom floor with a very nice mark up for the dealer.

Glad I bought my E85 M Roadster when I did. $14K off MSRP. Deal of a lifetime and I love the car more every day.

Pretty low budget really IMO, a sneaky 1 minute vid, internet forum spam and a few guys flying to Germany for a day |

Autocar, AutoExpress, say
BMW will only be selling 450 RHD 1-Series M Coupés in the UK, with the order books opening in January and the first customer deliveries in May. Steved (another tread/post) confirms 1000 to the USA. $hit! |

Yes European Delivery should be available for the 1M. I was told by a reliable CA (Irv Robinson) it would be able to be picked up after April 15th. I have no idea on pricing for European Delivery or if it will count against a Dealership's allocations.
