I think that's what they are doing with the 2020 Mini GP. Orders are being placed directly with MiniNA with the first option for current GP1 or GP2 owners.

Any chance of getting a M2CS category in the main M2 section? I see the CS order threads in the M2 comp category and the the long time running threads in this section. Might be time to consolidate. |

About a dedicated M2 CS section: also note the remarks of moderator mkoesel regarding a similar request: Quote:

I think your request speaks to the heart of the entire M2C versus M2CS debate. . . proponents of the latter consider it to be significantly different than the M2C. The detractors do not. ///AVM |

Thanks.
As explained in my previous comment, still keeping the M2 CS threads for the moment in the general M2 section.

I know it’s not a competitor to the M2 CS but anyone who was pining after a CSL and looking for something fun, this little Yaris has more CSL dna that the CS. Estimated UK price of £30k. Not exactly cheap but when you factor in the CS is likely to depreciate that amount in the first 12 months it starts looking like a bargain. |

Doesn't look like it at the moment but there is a petition going to possibly change that:

Apologies, I am sure this may have been mentioned before. But without trawling through a what is now a lengthy and diversified thread I was wondering if there has been an 'official' production number for the M2CS. I seem to recall a figure of 2200 units globally, but am not sure as to the origin of this number and can't recall where I saw it.

I have a UK allocation and have until Friday to decide whether to confirm an order. That was the basis of my query. I remember seeing that figure somewhere and was unsure as to whether it was speculative or something with more credibility.

TRL gave the indication that each UK dealership was being allocated 2 cars (150 dealers = 300 cars). This morning I called to get my deposit back (placed back in Feb 2016!) and was told there will be 50 UK cars which sounds more believable. I'll take back what I said about crazy depreciation if there's only 50 cars but probably makes your decision a little more tricky

If you don't mind me asking, what was behind you getting your deposit back at this late stage, especially since you placed it prior to the launch of the OG M2?! On the other hand, I completely understand if you do not wish to disclose that. |

My information is that some UK dealerships got no cars, and some got only 1.
What is the source of the 50 figure? I have no idea what UK total allocation is though. 50 sounds too low though, given that UK buys a high proportion of M cars (3rd largest global market). Based on that it would be reasonable to expect about 200-300 cars for UK. |

Smart move finally by BMW UK. They got burned and IMO damaged the brand rep of the 'CS' label with the M3/4. Too many allocations not taken up was not good for residuals.
If it's 50 car won't be sitting on lots with 33% discount to just over Competition prices. Return to form, and I guess lessons learned, good stuff.
