+1. My contact inside BMW Group Canada agrees with you. Timing for production, ordering and arrival schedules as well as pricing is not defined/official yet. I only get approximations from him for now.

+1. The painted black roof is one of the dumber things I've read lately

Anyone know if factory installed black/shadow trim will be an option?
Love it on my "is", and would love it on a LBB F87. Thanks! |

The $65,000 price is high, IMO, too... my dealer is speculating (notice I said speculating) it will be very low $60K base. Maybe the Edmonton dealer is building in their "markup" already

The high gloss shadowline trim that goes around the top of the doors and part of the side mirrors is standard on the M2.

It's the best angle I think. Looks great. Would look so much better with a taller CF trunk spoiler though.

To those of you who will be getting the shadow-line trim on your car be very careful with it in the future when washing it or using any chemicals on it, It can get a grey defect on it and it will look like sh*t so only use good substances for cleaning it when you get your M2, Trust me i know i speak of experience from my 2er :P

For the record, the UK wasn't the only country to have set production numbers and the UK cars were not tagged with their specific production number. The plaque only said 1 of 450. I believe France was the only country to have specifically production numbered plaques and their set production number was 100. You also failed to mention that BMW over produced the 1M from their initial estimate. What limited the 1M production was the end of the E82 life cycle and the M2 doesn't have the same issue.

The M2 has other issues, like the fact that capacity at Leipzig is limited, and the fact that this is the same plant where BMW produces some of their popular models. I don't think BMW is going to set (or publish, for that matter) a specific production number, but I do think the M2 will be supply constrained by Leipzig's capacity and BMW's decision to prioritize production of other models.

"Other issue?" Yes, other issues. As in, issues that aren't related to the one you listed (E82 end-of-life). "The 1M had the same issue..." I never said it didn't. "...but the plant's capacity has increased each year." True, but it's still running at near capacity. "I'm predicting the M2 production numbers per year will be at least double of the 1M." That wouldn't surprise me in the least, but that doesn't mean that production will meet demand. I should also clarify my statement: "I don't think BMW is going to set (or publish, for that matter) a specific production number..." I agree/understand that every manufacturer has internal production targets, but that's not really what I'm referring to. I'm referring to scenarios where a manufacturer sets a limit on production that is released to the public, or is intended to limit production strictly for the purpose of creating something like a "limited edition". I think you and I are in agreement that this doesn't appear to be BMW's goal with the M2.
