Production starting after Geneva, like end of April or early May... Building up stock like they did with M2 and M4 GTS, and then push the first batch out in one go somewhere end of June, early July...
If you look at previous releases that seems to be the way to go. M3 CS would then be the Detroit and Brussels release together with e.g. the X2, X4 could be at Geneva as well, X7 at Shanghai. i8 and i8 facelift are clearly LA together with the facelifted BMW 2 Series Active Divorce. The Grand Divorce is EOP (luckily).
The other stuff follows later, but this could well be the first part of the year.

June 2018.
Let the outrage begin.
Makes sense to me. Puzzling that some car websites (even recently) claimed calendar year 2019 for any M2 variant. Seems that either they confuse MY2019 with calendar year 2019, or assimilate USA-spec and EUR-spec or speak about the hardcore variant M2 CSL (calendar year 2019).
