They are waiting to see if anyone drops out, slim chance!
BMW said to the dealer they could have sold 90, not sure why they didn't, the limited numbers with all the cost of that development must make it difficult to break even.

Interesting.
I left a £1,000 deposit with my local dealer for an M2 CSL/GTS months back. Nr 2 on their list. No idea about the UK list. I'd be hopeful of bagging one of those if they do actually release one.
Didn't get any call about the M4 variant, although to be fair I didn't really seek one anyway, when I heard their starting price...

Has their been any news about the M2 version anyone?

Obviously BMW thinks they won't sell as many if it weren't limited..and i agree. If it were availiable in the thousands alot of people wouldn't buy it because it won't be a collectors item anymore.

It's sad to see that so many special versions are so limited that they end up being stowed away rather than being used the way they are intended to be.
Same thing with the CSL's in germany, with the current prices its hard to justify driving it.

I pray daily that the arse falls out of this ridiculous market. I want to see 25-30k Csl, 50k gt3, 70k rs again and hope these cars fall into hands of drivers rather than polishers and speculators.

Sad state of affairs right now.

Each to his own I guess.

Both of my M cars have appreciated significantly since I bought them especially the E30 but I couldn't care less. I still drive them as I like whenever I like. Road, Track, Dirt, Rain... The only time I look at the odometer is to keep track of the service intervals...

I didn't buy Apple stocks, I bought great cars and they are only great when driven and driven properly...

P.S. Cleaning and Polishing a dirty used car gives me more satisfaction than dusting off a clean one

I agree fully Ian, it's all gone daft. Some fecker out there has my future 964 RS locked away and it wants to be with me
