My voucher does not mention 300 or the 700. But the brochure I received with the voucher reads 'approximately 700'.

They should be keeping 1 at the Nurburgring test center and I am sure they will keep a few under the M Studio in Garching.

Frank van Meel used much more definite language regarding production limit here:

http://www.bmwblog.com/2015/12/28/bm...odels-per-day/

Key passage:
Even though demand has surpassed supply, BMW says it never considered increasing the production numbers. “No, we would never do that,” Van Meel said. “For the buyers, it is important that the edition is limited. It would be neat if we could then build more copies than previously announced.”

It's unfortunately that they exceeded their word on the number of cars. But, hopefully those extra 100 go to enthusiast

Overall its still a limited production car, so it should hold some value for years to come. But hopefully most us intend to use it and not flip it or make it a garage queen. Only a few more weeks till I see mine.

And they must be hiding "a few" in different places around the world. Don't be surprised the final number is around 2,000 units

The fact is no one will truly know that number. It is all speculation.

803 is based on fact (actual VIN numbers), not speculation
