Yes, BMW continued to make the 1M for the Euro market, but gave the US/NA market a limited number and the stopped.
BMW said that they would build more if there was demand.
I don't know, maybe demand stopped or slowed dramatically in the US after all the initial allocation was sold?
BMW paid for US certification, one would think they would want to maximize return on investment, especially since BMW said they have the capacity to make more if demand was there.
There are used 1M's in the market, but from what I read on the 1 forum, used 1M's are still selling for near new MSRP or not much lower.
Dealers marking them up when new didn't help. That can happen when a very limited number of cars is offered. Some US dealers didn't even get one 1M.
