This would make a lot of sense, I was at my Porsche dealer the other day and they were told this year Porsche will do everything they can to unload the backlog and 911 production should ramp up, my small dealer in Canada has 200+ 911 backlog alone..

From May 2022 to now I only jumped one spot for a C2 GTS, that means they basically received only one in 2022...

I wouldn't be surprised at all that BMW adopts similar strategy to clear backlogs. Thank god my Malachite M3 is scheduled for production.
