The rumors were that BMW was having difficult longitudinal strength issues with spyder engineering. This goes back a ways and we haven't seen, heard or read much of any new developments more recently. My dealership sales mgr recently mentioned that the spyder concept work was rumored to have stopped, but he was just repeating other, internal rumors. He also said the rumors of a 2016 M or S i8 version were stronger and potentially more viable. Who knows. In any case, I remain on their M/S version wish list, just in case.
I would love a spyder version too, if it ever evolves.
