I guess that's a better problem to have than Porsche, who still have plenty of 918 allocations...looking into the GT3 wait list length the other day, the guy tried to up-sell me to a 918 when I mentioned my i8 order. The lack of concrete info from BMW is unprecedented. I don't think there has been any new official info (besides the videos) since the Press Release at the Frankfurt show debut in September.

Don't scare me like that, my deposit is for an MY 2015
I'm confident after attending the various BMW i8 events and speaking to various people there involved in the project that this is not true; there will be a 2nd year run, maybe even a 3rd.
Btw, even the 1M Coupe ran production for 2 model years.
The Z8, extremely limited, ran for 4 years. It was suggested that the i8 can be compared to the Z8 in terms of rarity and exclusivity.
