The OG M2 production while not limited, was fairly small. Compared the E9x platform, they produced about 1/3. Comparing directly to the E92, about 1/2. While its easier to find what you want because of only one package, one interior color, and 4 exterior, I don't see the affecting it too much. Sub 30k miles I think will stay in ~40k range for the next couple of years.

I would look at the E9x pricing as a forecast.
Spot on. Lease rates on these things were not great from my research, especially when compared to M3/M4. Factor in that and limited production (in comparison), and overall, I think the OG will hold value decently.
