Does anyone know, or have an educated guess, how many M2's have been delivered in the US? It seems that most, if not all, HEA cars have been distributed. So that's what 330? Also a handful of allocations 100? So 400 total since April? Just curious.

[Shankska]

Interested as well

[zenmaster]

MY guess would be something less than 250 deliveries

Sounds about right. I heard 200-250.

[Shankska]

wow thats way low and some how I got one

[blackholescion]

Not all HEAs have been delivered. Also, not all MY16s have been delivered.

[azfootdoc]

Wow that is a pretty small group. I gues it makes sense that some of the HEA cars are still trickling in. And from what has been posted here it sounds as though very few non HEA cars have been delivered. It will be interesting to see where things stand next year at this time. Undoubtedly there will be a greater volume by then but it will be interesting to see how many. It blows my mind that they have been building M2's since November 2015 and all they've only delivered 250 or so in the US. You would have thought they could have had a fair number made between Nov and April.

My HEA is "in transit"

[jasonheaddinG]

my non-hea was supposed to arrive in Baltimore on the 2nd. expecting pickup to be mid month......finally👍

I follow the industry closely and subscribe to some industry publications, the growth in auto sales has slowed or stopped and BMW has seen a decline in sales of several models. I wonder if this will free up some factory capacity to put out more of the M2s? I know that suppliers play a key role in the volume of cars that can be made so I do wonder if a supplier has held back the production a bit. All in all I do expect things to pick up for the 2017 model because it will be a full production year and they have plenty of established orders. It will be interesting to see. Unfortunately they report sales grouped not separated by models so all 2 series, 228, M235 and M2 are all reported as a single number. Last month the sales of 2 series was up 18% versus the same month last year.

I'd imagine the answer would depend on if BMW decided to retool the plant. If sales are shifting to the 2-series as those numbers seem to indicate, then the plant capacity would be stressed as opposed to being freed up.

They build multiple models out of that factory and it is one of their highest producing factories, I suspect that if they suppliers can keep up they can build as many as they want. They don't need to retool the plant, they build all of these cars on the same production line, the days of single model production lines are pretty much over with the exception of the Ford F-150 other light trucks.

So <250 in USA from april till now? And ROW?
Any guesses? >500 already?

AFAIK this year they were going to produce about 3000 units, am I wrong?

Cheers

This is incorrect. They actually do have to retool for the M2 since it uses a different suspension set-up that cannot be done on the same line tools as all the other 2ers.

I heard anywhere from 2,500-3,000 for the year.

They need to retool the plant to produce more cars - straight from the mouth of Klaus Fröhlich.

From November until now. April is when customer orders started and those are only just now being delivered. My guess would be an average of 150/mo from now until year end will be delivered for the US.

as of today, June 6,2016; there are 610 EH93 NA M2's produced and 43 with VIN # pending production for a total of 653 .

Certainly several more MY16's will be built in the next 3 weeks.

Of these 70 were preproduction M2's and 140 were HEA cars for the dealers, or about 210 cars with codes 991,997, and 999. This leaves 400 north american allocated M2's produced to date. This also includes all the canadian M2s.

Interestingly there are several "individual" cars listed. Not individual paint but with sunroof, special press cars, etc. Still parsing out the details.

So it appears that total production for MY16 North American M2 will be about 700, including all the preproduction, HEA, and canadian vehicles. Ordered M2's produced off a dealer allocation will probably number just under 500 for MY16.

16 NA M2's is the largest number I have seen produced in one day (2/19/2016). Recently it seems leipzig has been pumping them out at 5-7 per day. The daily production can be as low as 1!

Excellent info thanks!

Also, that is waaaayy less than I would've guessed.

So maybe 400 usdm ones with some in transit? I wonder how many are on this board it feels like less then 50

My M2 was produced 5/30/16. I expect it will get here end of june early july. It's production started 5/15. Since then another 90 Vin's have been assigned. So those M2's produced in early May should be hitting the shore about now.

In the month of april about 130 NA bound M2's were produced. Prior to that from Jan 1 to March 31 150 NA m2's were produced. A good majority of those were hea and preproduction vehicles. so most of those should be stateside by now.
