Interesting BMW came out and said that they will produce as many as they can (within their timeframe) and that it may be more than the 2,200 units originally planned. Usually car brands are more hush hush if they were to produce more and keen on publicly emphasizing their limited nature first and foremost.

Front seats and arm rests in the door for sure... Rear seats, I did not ask, but I got a yeah when I said the whole car has Merino leather? But double check that when you get your car.

What did they say about the rear tail light issue? My car is currently at the dealer waiting for a new light assembly until Tuesday
Did they have a solution that fixes it permanently? |

According to someone here or on Facebook, the connector is the issue and he fixed it himself. It gets moisture in it and then throws an error, and for me it always happens after a few days in the garage, so I can relate to that explanation. MR |

I believe the problem is not the actual taillight itself but a lack of ground polarity. If I had to make a guess, they didn't do anything to change this or else there would a SIB available, specifically for the LCI taillights. |

Sorry to veer off topic but I just wanted to point out that moisture is not the cause of this issue; the wired connects are water-sealed and so is the harness, once it's plugged in. You can literally power-wash the entire light housing and I guarantee liquid is not seeping through the harness connector. Believe me, I've checked. There was a grounding issue with the pre-LCI taillights and it seems to have traveled over to the LCI also. https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/f...ess/1VnZ8zZX2B |

@MR. Did the interior give you a sense of feeling more premium or special when compared to the C? "Lively" might be a better descriptor for what I'm asking.

https://www.bmwblog.com/2020/06/21/b...nical-details/ @MR. Looks like your article. Mods can feel free to delete my thread with the link and add to Mr.'s initial post. Id feel sleezy if my new thread got scooped for the main page and MR didn't get credit for it.

I'm curious how it'll work out in the end and where the cars end up getting distributed. The production year got shorted with COVID, and it's not like it's suddenly going to be 3500+ cars. Be interesting to see if the 400 ish US cars becomes much more than 500 or not. I'd be pretty shocked if it crossed the 600 mark, which is still very limited for a run. (A fraction of the 6309 1M's, and 983 US/CA deliveries)

The Euro spec M2C's discontinuation frees up more capacity than originally planned for the M2 CS. Just as said, it mostly will come down to demand. Also, the timing is critical. Sept of 2020 will be the launch of G80/82, a direct competitor to F87CS price wise. They must allocate as many as dealer accept ASAP. After that, all the marketing will go to the new M3 and M4. Leipzig will gradually pull off production line till its sop in early 2021. From the look of it right now, it's very challenging for the F87CS to succeed as a commercial project.

In terms of rocks getting stuck between the calipers and the the barrel, I'm actually surprised that is still an issue. When I had my F80 M3C, this happened six times over three years. After over a year with the M2C, not once (I have not moved). Maybe I've just been lucky... Quote:

I will definitely be removing mine regardless of the cost, as I just think it looks out of place on the car.
