2017 production numbers?

Anyone know if MY 2017 production numbers will be just as low as MY 2016 with limited allocations? Every dealer I've reached out to says they are sold out for MY 2016, but can take a deposit in case someone backs out. The earliest they can get a car is late summer/early fall. I think they are being optimistic which made me back off trying to get an M2 this year. One salesperson told me they only produced 700 units for MY 2016. Not sure I believe that.

I don't think that 700 is a stretch. If you consider that they have produced roughly 340 or so HEA cars for each dealer and might put out a similar number in production between now and the end of the 2016 run in the summer. 700 sounds about right. I bet total cars produced for this calendar year all of MY 2016 and part of MY 2017 is 1500 or so. That sounds about right.

2016/2017 is looking to be around 1500 units, so 700 isn't far off the mark.

MY2017 should be higher as BMW already said they would retool the factory to help meet demand.

Doesn't the m235i get a facelift for MY 2017? Will the M2 also get one for MY 2017?
